As you can see, there are several options in the Graphics pull-down menu. You need to download dbWindow 3.0 to try all the powerful features.
The Attach Linkage command will take one or more highlighted rows in the grid item and attach the corresponding database linkages to one or more selected elements. Elements can be selected individually or with the use of a selection set or an active fence.
After attaching a database linkage to an element, it is then considered intelligent which means you can locate that element by selecting its row and then using Locate element with selected row simply select a view or you can review its linked database record by selecting an element using Review element attributes.
The Locate Element command will take one highlighted row, which represents a single database record, and locate any elements in the active file or referenced files that have the corresponding database linkage. A located element is shown by centering the element in a user selected view and flashing the element in the active highlight color three times. Consecutive user data points will loop through the entire queued list of elements one at a time.
