Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Moving about within a form

Many forms have several panels.
You can move to a different panel by clicking that panel or you can use the View menu which also shows the corresponding shortcut keys.

 

Moving between tabsheets

Many forms have tabsheets.
You can move to a different tabsheet by clicking that tabsheet or you can use the View menu which also shows the corresponding shortcut keys.

 

Moving between fields

You can move to a field by clicking it or tabbing to it.
[Tab] moves to the next field
[Shift+Tab] moves you to the previous field.
[Enter] acts just like the [Tab] key in most forms and moves to the next field, but when it doesn’t then use the [Tab] key.

 

Viewing and editing tables

AdaptAccounts data is maintained in database tables. Most of what you do involves viewing and editing tables. So most forms involve viewing and editing tables and these forms have database navigator controls on their speedbar. Many forms have more than one table but at any point in time there is a particular table and record that is currently active and the navigator controls apply to that table and record.

The navigator controls are described in the Speedbar.
