The command buttons on the dialog perform the following operations:

SetTamURL	Sets the Tamino database URL and collection (e.g. http://localhost/tamino/mydb/ino:etc). This is used to set the property `csDatabaseURL`.
Hex Big Chars	Option that, if selected, causes response XML documents that have non-printing characters to be output as hex values.
ClearResults	Clears the results text box.
Version	Performs a `TaminoX.GetVersion()` operation and displays the result.
Ping	Performs a `TaminoX.Ping()` operation and displays the result.
Echo	Performs a `TaminoX.Echo()` operation and displays the result.
StartSession	Performs a `TaminoX.StartSession()` operation and displays the result. Note that `StartSession` calls may not be nested – try it and see the error!
Commit	Performs a `TaminoX.Commit()` operation and displays the result. Note that a previous `StartSession` is required – try it and see the error!
Rollback	Performs a `TaminoX.Rollback()` operation and displays the result. Note that a previous `StartSession` is required – try it and see the error!
EndSession	Performs a `TaminoX.EndSession()` operation and displays the result. Note that a previous `StartSession` is required – try it and see the error!

GetDocument	Performs a `TaminoX.GetDocument()` operation and displays the result. Gets a document from the database. The document type and name should correspond to the preceding `PutDocument` (or a known document in the database). This means that the ino:id (`@n`) should match a preceding `PutDocument` X-INO-id HTTP header value.
DoQuery	Performs a `TaminoX.DoQuery(`) operation followed by a `ReturnNodes` operation and displays the node values.
XQuery	Performs a `TaminoX.XQuery()` operation and displays the node values.

Tamino relative Url	Relative URL combined with the base URL to fully specify the non-XML document to be used.
Upload Non XML	Uploads the user specified document to “base URL/relative URL”. The user specified document is obtained via a file browsing dialog.
