The Context Menu

The "Context" is the set of operation you can use for the selected object in the object tree browser. You can use the alternative access to this menu by the right mouse button (for right handed mouse).

Not all operations are available for all database objects.

Context->Refresh Object Tree

Context->Detach Database

Disconnect attached database from current session. See full Attach Database documentation.

Raise a dialog for table creation. You can use two ways to create table here. See full Create Table documentation

Context->Rename Table...
