At selection of map object the information about it is shown in standard description: the metrics, semantics, type etc. Instead of the standard information about the map object it is possible to show the tabular data in user-friendly view. For realization of such possibility it is necessary beforehand to create the user's form and to point for review of which map objects this form is intended.

 For this purpose it is necessary to select the User forms bookmark in Base Administrator, to press Map link button and in the dialogue <"User forms and map objects" link parameters> to add new string   (Add button). For each string the following information is filling:

- Form name - name of the user's form (is selected from the  dialogue "List of the project forms");

- Link type - type of link between the form and map (is selected from the list). The form of the user can be connected to the map object or with a map layer;

- Key value - an object image or a layer (is selected from the Map object selection dialogue);

- Localization - character of object localization - object type (is selected from the list).

The editing of the above mentioned columns is executed by double click of a mouse button in each of them.

Memorizing of the link parameters is fulfilled by pressing onto Setup button).

If it is required for example to set the link between the object Pools of area localization from a layer Hydrography and the user's form it is necessary to do the following:

- To create the form of user (in User forms bookmark use the Add mode);

- To set the link parameters of the user form and a map object (in User forms bookmark use the Map link mode);

- To link the map object and record of the database table. The Browse mode in Tables bookmark, or in Standard form bookmark use the Browse mode where you can select the menu item Map / Link object and record or use the button ici_9094Control of the external database;

- To select the button ici_9095 on Database control panel. This panel is placed at the bottom of the main system window after activation of the item Tools panel in DataBase menu;

- By double mouse click on the selected object the form of the user will be actuated. If the map object is not linked with the table record the message " Record for the object is not found" will appear. In this case if the user's form contains the Work panel component it is possible to set the link of a map object and the table record by usage of the button ici_9094.

The form of the user which one will be used for browse of the map object parameters should necessarily have the filled property - Active data set. This property indicates onto a data set of the form among of which records the data search for the selected map object will be realized. In case the property will not be filled correctly the warning " Link parameters with a map are not found " will be generated.
