A Definer item given you access to USoft Definer.

USoft Definer is the core component of any USoft development environment. It is a tool for defining an application's data model, rules, and batch routines.

Typically, each USoft Binder file that is used at design-time (and has Project Type = Development) has exactly 1 Definer item at all times.

You can create USoft Definer tables from a Definer item in USoft Binder by right-clicking on the item and choosing Create Tables from the context menu. The Create Tables dialog will appear.
