Two modes are available; each features a specific toolbar:

Connected Mode (Database viewer): the database is or can be linked to an estimate; inserting an article to an estimate is allowed. Refer to Data model and How to Insert an Article or a Set into a Section of Minutes

Edit Mode (Database editor): no row insertion is allowed. This enlarges the window, and the toolbar and tree view hide. To reveal the bar Database, click the new tab Database

 

The figure that follows shows thru which icons you can switch the modes to each other:
