The Field relationship map contains the following elements:

Field - Locates a field in a table and a database. Each field is displayed as a point contained in the circle created by the table and database rings. Move the mouse over the point for a field to see the name of the field and the names of the table and database that contain it.

Note Note: Some points are connected to other points with red lines. The red lines represent key relationships between the fields. You can also right-click a point to see a pop-up menu that enables you to display the selected field and related fields in the Report tab. Finally, you can click many of the points and see sample data for the selected field on the Data Sample tab on the right side of the Map tab.
