EditEntry - Edit currently selected entry (F4)

The action displays the currently selected instance in a list or sinle line edit field. In order to show the instance, it checks first, whether a design class ( ADK_Class ) has been implemented for the current data type of the selected instance. When such a design class exists, it is checked, whether a window ( ADK_Window ) with the name Edit has been implemented or not. When such a window could be found, instance data is shown by opening the Edit window for the data type.

Otherwise, a generic window will be displayed:

The generic window displays the attribute and MEMO properties in a transposed table view (left). When the data source has been opened in write mode, attribute values might be updated. The second tab displays the references and relationships. Owning references/relationships are displayed with bold face letters.
