Personalizing lists
You can add or delete columns, change labels, change column order, change the sort order, the order in which the data in the columns is presented, and for numeric columns, add totals. Select

The Column tab in the list editor shows a table that represents the columns, fields and field values, that make up the list. The columns (fields) table presents information about the fields as they are used in the table.
- Field: The name of the field within the application object or business class.
- Label: The column heading as it is defined by the business class unless you choose to personalize it.
- Updateable: Whether or not the values in the list can be edited directly from the list.
- Sorting and Totaling: If a column is sorted or totaled, it is displayed here.
- Alerts: Create or delete alerts for the list.
This table shows the types of changes you can make to a list in the list editor view.
