Hide and Reveal Columns

Use this procedure to change which columns are revealed in a table and which are hidden.

Note – This task can done only by menu, not by mouse.

1.
Display the table column list using either of the following methods:
•
In the Table Toolbar, select View > Columns.

•
Right‑click any column heading and select Columns.

The menu displays a list of available columns in alphabetical order; up to 10 items are shown in this list. The columns currently included in the table are indicated by check marks.

2.
To change the table display, do one of the following:
•
Select Show All to add all columns to the table. See Step 7.

Note – This will result in a very wide table.

•
Select a column on the list to add it to the table, or deselect a column to remove it. See Step 7.
•
Select Show More Columns to display the complete list of all columns available for the table. See Step 3.
3.
The Show More Columns dialog box appears.

The Visible Columns list identifies the columns currently included in the table and their order. The Hidden Columns list identifies columns that are currently hidden; they are listed in the order defined in the current template.

4.
Arrange the columns so that the ones you want to display are included in the Visible Columns list and the ones you want to remove are in the Hidden Columns list.
a.
Select the columns you want to move from one list to the other. This dialog box supports Multi-select.

b.
Click an arrow to move the items, as follows:

  or  

Move the selected item(s) to the indicated list.

c.

5.
Optionally, you can reorder the items in the Visible Columns list by using the reorder arrows on the right side of the dialog box.

Moving items up the list causes the columns to be moved to the left in the table display; moving them down the list causes the columns to be moved to the right.
