## Chapter 3. The main window - creating a new database

Once you have successfully logged in, the main window will be displayed, listing all your existing databases on the server in the combobox in the top toolbar. The list view on the left side shows your already existing tables, queries, forms and reports of the currently selected database. The name of the selected database will be shown on top of the listview and in the combobox.

Figure 3.1. The main window

In our case, we want to create a new database. Double-click the current database name in the list view or select it in the listview. After confirming the new name by pressing the 'OK' button, the new database is inserted into the list of the combobox, from where you can select it.

### Important

If you want to create a new object (a database, table, query, form or report ) in KNODA, you have three possibilities

- Double click the object you want to create in the listview. Example: To create a new table double-click on the word "Tables"

- Select the object you want to create in the listview, then select 'New' in the 'Actions' menu

- Select the object you want to create in the listview, then click on the very left button of the main tool bar
