Using Quick Form

Quick Form enables you to place multiple database fields on a form faster than choosing each data item individually. Select one or more data items, and Quick Form automatically places the fields on the new form simultaneously.

Depending on the number of selected fields, you might need to resize the form or move and align fields to achieve the desired layout.

To use Quick Form:

  1. On Form Design Aid, select Form, Quick Form.

  2. On Quick Form layout, select the number of columns of controls you want on the form and whether you want the columns arranged horizontally or vertically.

  3. Select the data items from the BV that you want to display and move them to the columns in the form pane.

  4. Use the buttons under the columns in the form pane to order the data items.

  5. Click the OK button to place the fields on the form.

    Quick Form remains open so that you can adjust the arrangement by changing the columns per row and the vertical and horizontal placement.
