Adding a Note to a Field

Using a note, you can enter details about this element and what it is designed to do. Adding a note to a field on the form is optional, but can be helpful to others in understanding how this element works on this form, particularly if it has a special behavior, such as automatically creating another record.

To add a note:

  1. Open the form for which you want to add a field note.
  2. In the Form Designer window, click the Properties button on the toolbar. The Elements Properties window opens showing a list of the fields (data elements) on the form.
  3. Select the field you want to add a note to.
  4. Click the Add Note button. A Notes window opens.
  5. Add the note in this window and click OK.
    • You can enter up to 4000 characters.
    • uDesigner will display the note in a Notes column on the Elements Properties window.
    • To read the note, scroll over to the Notes column, or double-click the data element to open another Element Properties window that shows the entire note.
