For example set the value attibute of key "Autorefresh" to false if you have speed
problems and work on a slow net.
PBintelli helps you write code faster and more
accurately by presenting context-sensitive pick list of possible values to
insert into your code based on a few characters you have already typed. Just

and parent.

If you want the columns names of a datawindow object you can type something
