Overview of Template Editor

The Template Editor offers various options for creating new templates and editing existing templates for use with the File Manager editor. Templates improve the functionality of the File Manager editor by providing a particular interpretation of records stored in a resource. The Template Editor allows you to specify what that interpretation is by providing the tools necessary to easily create and modify templates. Having this functionality gives you additional control over the way you interact with your data. The Template Editor provides a similar level of editing functionality as is available in File Manager.
