Using the Navigator

The Navigator provides access to all your Oracle9iAS Portal objects, including page groups, providers, and database objects.

To use the Navigator:

  1. Access the Navigator.

  2. Click the relevant tab, depending on what you are looking for:

    Page Groups, Providers, Database Objects.

    The Navigator displays a list of objects and the actions you are authorized to perform on those objects. The list of actions depends on your privileges.

  3. Clicking on the name of an object will do one of two things:

  4. Use the links just below the Navigator tabs to create new objects.

  5. Use the Path just below the Create New links to navigate back up to parent objects.

  6. Use the arrow buttons to sort the objects in the order that best enables you to locate the object you are looking for. The green arrow indicates the current sort order.

  7. If you know the name, or part of the name, of the object you are looking for, use the Find field to search in the current tab of the Navigator for that object.
