Table type
|
The table in which the data field resides. The default is the table with which the Form Design file is associated. If inserting fields from foreign tables is permitted, other tables are available for selection. Fields inserted from foreign tables are display-only.
|
Fields available
|
Lists the fields that can still be inserted on the form.
|
Fields selected
|
Lists the fields that have already been selected for insertion on the form. You can use the standard Windows drag-and-drop technique to reorder the fields in the list. The first field in this list is the first field inserted (or appended) to the form, the second field in this list is the second field inserted (or appended) to the form, and so on.
|
When clicked, the field selected in the Fields available list is moved to the Fields selected list. You can also double-click a field in the Fields available list to move it to the Fields selected list.

When clicked, all fields in the Fields available list are moved to the Fields selected list.

Data field
|
The prompt or name of the data field. By default, this is the name entered in the User Prompt column in the Project’s Data Definition file. Although you can override the name entered in the User Prompt column by entering a new name here, this is not recommended. Only the names entered in the User Prompt column display on reports.
|
Required field
|
Indicates whether the control is for a required field.

As you step through the pages of the Form Design Wizard, you can click Finish on any page. When you click Finish, the wizard uses the default settings for all remaining pages to immediately generate the form. Because the fields to add to the form are not selected until you reach the Field Selection page, this is the earliest page on which you might want to click Finish to bypass subsequent wizard pages.

In a Form Design file, you can insert fields for changing the items to which a record is tied. For example, you can insert System Tree Item and Configuration in a Form Design file for the FRACAS Incidents table and then use these fields to select the system tree item and configuration. Or, you can insert Incident in a Form Design file for the FRACAS Maintenance Logs table and then use it to select the incident.
