If you move the mouse pointer over the icons in the object dialog box, it shows its class name and some description in a balloon help. You can drag and drop an icon to the instance of the application window which is displayed.

See the section:[How to see the list of the application windows]. After displaying the application window, drag the icon and drop it on the instance to place the object.

The following shows the kinds of objects.

Forms Areas which have window resources and manage child objects
Commands Objects which have various functions, and do not have window resources
