3. Choose the Club List layout from the Layout pop-up menu.
This layout shows each record as one row in a columnar list. Notice that the Club List layout contains
only four of the fields that were present in the Data Entry layout. Because fewer fields are present on this
layout, some data is simply not displayed. However, no data has been removed from the database.
4. Go to the Layout pop-up menu and return to the Data Entry layout. No data has been lost.
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, List View, and Table View while the database is in
Browse mode.
The Club List layout displays only four of the fields present on the Data Entry layout
