Chapter 2 Using Libraries 33
To create a library using the Bento templates:
1 Choose File > New Library.
2 In the New Library dialog, select a template category in the left column, then select
the template.
Select “Blank” if none of the templates meet your needs. You can create all of the
fields yourself with the Blank library.
3 Enter a name for your library, and click Choose.
Bento creates the library, and opens the library in form view.
If you selected a template other than the Blank template, review the fields that are
defined for your new library.
1 If you are happy with the fields and form views in your new library, then you’re
ready to add records and enter information. See
“Editing Records in Form View” on
page 48.
1 If you need additional fields, then customize the library by adding fields. See
“Adding Fields to a Form” on page 50.
1 If there are fields defined for information that you do not need, then delete fields.
See
“Deleting Fields from a Form” on page 51.
