Sybase Central is a tool for managing Sybase software. Each product is managed by a separate plug-in. For information on managing a specific product, see the online help for its plug-in, separate from this online help.
Easy command access The File menu in Sybase Central automatically updates when you select an object, providing commands related directly to that object. You can also access these commands from the popup menu that appears when you right-click an object.
Task wizards If you want to add a new object, Sybase Central provides you with wizards that walk you through the task step by step.
Drag-and-drop functionality Sybase Central supports drag-and-drop functionality for many operations. For example, if you want to copy tables to a different database, you can click and drag them to that location.
Keyboard shortcuts Many commonly-used commands have keyboard shortcuts; these shortcuts are listed beside the command names in the menus. See Keyboard shortcuts.
Plug-in support You can manage a variety of database products and tools by using plug-ins. Each plug-in provides its own online help, separate from this online help.
