  1. Go to the Intellect\Tools folder and run ddi.exe.
  2. In the program window, select the DBI tab.
  3. In the File menu, select Open. The Open dialog box appears.
  4. Go to Intellect's root folder and select the intellect.dbi file. The ddi.exe window shows a list of objects.

  5. To add the new object, in the list's context menu, select Add.

    Note:

    You may add a new object by pressing the Insert key as well.

  6. A dialog box opens. In the ID field, enter an object name (used for identification) and click OK.

    Note:

    The mandatory fields are automatically added to the created object (see Section Adding Objects to Intellect.dbi).

The object has now been added to the DBI file.

To add a field:

  3. To save the changes, in the File menu, select Save.

The new field is now added.
