Functions for defining table formats (database definition)
 
To create a database, first define the table formats. 2.2 "Designing a Database," explains the kinds of formats used for 
tables. RDB commands are used to execute database definitions. For information about how to use actual RDB 
commands to define a database, see Chapter 2 "Database Creation." 
Functions for maintaining and managing databases (database management)
 
SymfoWARE/RDB has functions for creating, saving, restoring, maintaining, and managing a database. These 
functions are invoked by executing specific RDB commands. 
For descriptions of the database maintenance and management functions and information about how to execute the 
functions, refer to the "RDB Operations Guide."
