List and form view

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The database module can display databases in two different ways:

The list view offers the best overview of the database. Here, you see several records listed one after another in tabular form.

The form view is more useful for viewing individual records. Here, the fields of a single record are displayed as in a form.

Note: You cannot enter data in list view. This is only possible in form view.

To switch between list and form view, click on the Form / list view button (in the group View). If the button appears dark, the form view is enabled, otherwise the list view is enabled.

Tip: You can switch very quickly between these two views with the F2 key. Furthermore, a double-click on a record in list view displays the record in form view.
