Creating Views

     

Now that we have covered all the things that make up a view ”fields, tables, filters, and groups ”we can cover the relatively simple task of creating views. There are single views and combination views. Single views show one view across the entire screen. A combination view is really just a view that is a collection of two other views: one showing in the upper part of the screen, and the other in the lower part.

For Your Information

Creating Combination Views

To create a combination view, you will be asked to select two views from the list of existing views. These two views will be combined to make your new combination view. You should make sure that both views you want to use already exist. If they do not, use the procedure for creating single views to create them and then come back to the combination view procedure.
