Changing Focus in Collections

If a form has more than one collection of records, you can select the collection you want to work with by clicking a part of the form that displays the collection. For example, you can click a field or a box surrounding several fields. Doing so changes the focus of the form to the selected collection.

Another way is to locate the collection you want in a grid and click any cell for the record you want.

While working with a collection, keep this information in mind:

  • Actions menu commands affect only the selected collection.

    For example, the Next command navigates to the next record in the selected collection.

  • The selected collection is displayed in relief, with highlights and shadows.
  • Status bar messages change to reflect selected fields within the collection.
