to the “add table” button, and press “enter.” Or you can just press

edit box will be focused.
3) Type “addressbook” and then press “tab (space-4-5).”
4) Then, the “registered fields” list will be focused. At first, “no list
0/0” will be displayed in the list. As you add fields to this table,
they will be added to this list box.
5) Press “tab (space-4-5)” to move to the “add field” button, and
press “enter.” Or you can just press its shortcut key, “a (dot 1).”
6) Then the “add field” dialog box will be opened, and the “field
name” edit box will be focused.
7) Type “name” here, and then press “tab (space-4-5).”
8) Then, the “field type” combo box will be focused. Press “space-4”
or “space-1” to move to “edit box,” and press “tab (space-4-5).”
9) The “primary key” check box will be focused. If you want to set the
current field as the primary key, press “space” in order to check it.
10) Press “tab (space-4-5)” to move to the “confirm” button, and press
“enter.” Now, the “name” field has been added to the
“addressbook” table.
