Working with Grids in list views and tabs

There are features that allow you to change the way information is displayed in a grid. You can use these features to sort records or to hide or rearrange columns in the grid.

List view groups remember your sort and column width changes.

On this page, you can:

  • Sort records: Click the column header you want to use to sort your list. To change the direction of the sort, click the column heading again. Not all columns can be sorted.
  • Display or hide columns: Click Add and select the check box of the columns you want to appear in the grid and clear the check boxes of the columns you want to hide in the grid. When finished, hover on the menu and click Close after completing the task.

    By default, all columns are visible until hidden.

  • Move columns: Click the column you want to move and drag and drop the column to the new position in the grid.
  • Resize columns: Click and hold the column divider and drag to the size you require.

    Columns have a minimum column width and cannot be resized to be smaller than that width.

  • Select multiple records: To select multiple records, press [Ctrl] or [Shift], and highlight the records.

    To select multiple records using your keyboard, press [Ctrl] or [Shift] as you scroll through the list, and press the Spacebar key.

  • Clear selected records: In the Task Pane, under Common Tasks, click Clear. See Using the Task Pane
