What is a Database?
The Database is the top level of the Ascent hierarchy.
A database holds the sites and machine structure set up by the software user (every item of data in the Ascent software is stored in a database.).
Multiple databases can be used, but all sites must belong to the same database in order to share information between sites. Database files on your computer hard disk end with the extension
'.FDB' (or, in the case of older legacy Interbase databases, '.GDB').
