Although you've created the page, unbeknownst to you, the wizard has made an in-
accurate and inappropriate choice for the page template. Instead of using the default for
the theme you're using, it has chosen a template specifically. You need to change it so
that the page uses the default template for the theme:
7. Edit
Page 600
8. Edit the page attributes by double-clicking
Page Name
at the root of
the
Page Rendering
tree.
9. In the
Display Attributes
section, set
Page Template

Now that you have a Users page, you need to make a modification to the navigation
tabs. APEX supports one- and two-level tab navigation as part of the Shared Compon-
ents. When the application was created, the option chosen was one-level tab naviga-
tion.
However, the design you want has two levels of tabbed navigation. The first level
will show links on the right side, above the current tab bar. These will be the parent
tabs and will break the system into two functional sections: Admin and Issue Tracker.
The second level will provide navigation in each of the functional sections. By
breaking the application into separate sections, later you can easily dictate who can
view and use which section. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
