Creating iBase entities
iBase entities store their important information in records. To create entities that contain records, create your entities using the Data Source Pane.
About this task
In a chart, the first time that you connect to an iBase database, a new palette is created that contains all of the types in your database. You can use the pallette to select an entity type to create. Alternatively, you can create entities using the New Entity option on the task pane.
