A view is a way to look at the data in the database. Each database may have several views. Views are created by the designer of a database. A user with Reader access to the database dose not have the ability to change the views in the database. |
A view is really a predefined query that performs two tasks: |
Selecting documents that meet specified criteria |
Sorting documents for presentation to the user |
The data is not duplicated in each of these views; the views only provide different ways of viewing or organizing your data. |
