# Tables

The table object represents a table in a database. Tables can have various properties that can be edited using the inspector or by direct editing Tables can be assigned to a category, which may be identified by a color. To edit a table (or any object) using direct editing hit the return key and the table name will become editable.

You can add different types of objects to tables. These include fields, indexes and constraints. Other types of object may be added in future versions of SQLEditor.

There is an option to make tables resize automatically to fit the objects that they contained. This option is View→Auto Size Tables
