CHANGING FIELD LABELS AND HIDING FIELDS
Use the Field Labels dialog box to change the names of fields — or
even keep them from appearing at all, without deleting them from
the data record. (These changes will be reflected in both the Text List
View and the Info Sheet View.)
To change the names of fields:
STEP 1 Select Field Labels from the Edit menu.
The Field Labels dialog box appears.
STEP 2 Type your desired changes in any of the text entry boxes under
the heading Field Label.
STEP 3 When you are finished making changes, click OK to close the
Field Labels dialog box.
To hide fields:
STEP 1 Select Field Labels from the Edit menu.
The Field Labels dialog box appears.
STEP 2 Click the Hidden checkbox next to any field that you want to
hide.
STEP 3 When you are finished making changes, click OK to close the
Field Labels dialog box.
Hidden fields remain in the collection, but they do not appear in the
Text List View or Info Sheet View, or when you print or export the
record.
To see and/or edit these fields again, you must choose Field Labels
from the Edit menu and click to deselect the Hidden checkbox.

box to change the format of Date/Time fields.
