Browsing subjects

To browse subjects in an information catalog:

  1. Double-click the Subjects icon in the Information Catalog window.

    The Subjects window opens, displaying a list of objects in your information catalog. These objects contain other objects, but are not contained by any other object. The Subjects window opens in an icon view by default, but it can also open as a list view.
    The GEOGRAPHIES SELECT statement on the SQL Statement page.

  2. To view information that is contained in an object, right-click on the object, and click Open as --> Tree.
    The GEOGRAPHIES SELECT statement on the SQL Statement page.

    The tree view shows you the relationship of the objects that belong to a particular grouping. The objects in the tree view have plus signs (+) next to them to show that all objects in this view are grouping objects that contain other objects.

  3. Close the Tree window.
  4. Close the Subjects-Icon List window.
