About Creating and Modifying Detail Component Databases

AutoCAD Architecture 2022 toolset uses Microsoft® Access for its detail component databases. You can create and modify detail component databases using Microsoft Access directly if you are familiar with that product and with the structure of detail component databases. If you have edit privileges, you can also create and modify detail component databases through the Detail Component Manager, without using Microsoft Access. Nonetheless, before attempting advanced edits using the Detail Component Manager, you should be familiar with the schema for detail component databases, as described in the above-referenced topic.

Note: If you are working in a multi-user environment, it is recommended that you modify a keynote database only when no other users are accessing it.
