After you open an Archive File, you can select a table to browse within the Archive File.
You can browse data in any table in an Archive File. To display rows in the CUSTOMERS table, double-click the table name. In the Browse Archive File Table Data dialog, a browse window displays the data.

The browse window toolbar lets you select display options and menu choices that pertain to the display. For example, you can display or hide column attribute information, join and unjoin tables to view related data, and switch the display format. Shortcut menu commands, available when you right-click a column heading, allow you to find, include, or exclude rows that contain specific data.
Data is in columnar format (column names are displayed across the
top and data is displayed in columns beneath headings) or sidelabel
format (column names are on the left and a row of data is displayed
to the right of headings). The sidelabel format is useful if you
want to view all columns or data in a wide column for a row, without
having to scroll the display horizontally. The default format is
set in Personal Options; however, you can switch the display format
using the Columnar toolbar button
and the Sidelabel toolbar button
.
