Lesson 2 | Browsing information 14
View your layouts as forms, lists, and tables
You can view your layouts in three different ways: as a form, as a list, and as a table.
1 Form View displays your current layout one record at a time.
1 List View shows your current layout as a list, with one record appearing beneath another.
1 Table View shows you many records at one time in a grid.
Generally, layouts can be toggled between Form View, Table View, and List View while the
database is in Browse mode.
Switch between Form View, Table View, and List View in the same layout to see how they are different.
1. In the sample file, switch to the Customer Type List layout. You see many records, displayed
as a list.
2. Click Form View in the layout bar.
You now see a single record, displayed in the same layout. Only the viewing option has
changed.
3. Click Table View in the layout bar.
The View as Table feature allows you to view many records at once in a grid.
4. Click List View in the layout bar to return to List View.
Scroll down to display more records in List View.
