Setting a Current Library
A library is used to represent a work context.
*For a detailed description on the use of libraries, see Enterprises and libraries.
*This is useful in particular when exporting an object.
In your HOPEX desktop, when you set a current library, by default all the objects that you have created are contained in this library.
When a library is set, if needed, on creation of the object you can modify the library that contains it.
Defining a current library prevents the existence of isolated objects and facilitates exporting objects in a given context.
If the administrator has defined a default library for you (user level), this also defines your current library.
*The administrator HOPEX can define a default library at the user level (see Defining a Person).
To set a current library:
1. In your HOPEX desktop, click Main Menu .
2. Select Set Current Library.
The library tree window appears.
3. Select a library or a sub-library.

*If you select a sub-library, the library concerned is expanded and the sub-library selected is represented by .
