Table view is the default view shown when you create new views. It shows you rows of Entries and Columns showing data for each entry.

The entries shown in the table are those that match the current Filters on the left of the table view.

The first (left-most) column of a table has a check box to select the entry. The remaining columns show data from the entry. To view or edit the entry, click anywhere on the row (except on the check box or on any active links). The check boxes are used in combination with the Actions menu to make changes to multiple entries at once.

A new view will usually have only two data columns — the entry name, and a Summary column which shows a summary of Fields and values in the entry. It’s up to you to decide what else, if anything, you want to include.

Table views are designed to be “tweaked”. You can control almost every aspect of what data are shown in the table and in what order entries are shown. When you are happy with your table view, you can save it to use later or for others to use.

Use the Add Column button to add columns to a table view. Click the header of an existing column to change it or hide it again.

• Read about adding columns to find out about what type of columns you can add. At their simplest, columns often show the field value for a particular field from the entry, but they can show other data like Derived fields and the date an entry was last modified.

• Read about columns to find out all the different ways you can use a particular column. For instance, you can add Filters, change the order entries are sorted, group similar entries together, or add subtotals or Formulas.

At the bottom of a table view, there is a green bar with controls to navigate the view. To make it easier to work with large numbers of entries, table views have pages: each page shows a certain number of entries.

If there are more entries than can fit on one page, you will see forward/backward arrows to go to the next and previous page and start/end arrows to go to the first and last page.

You can change the number of entries per page by using the drop-down menu on the bottom right. (Showing more entries at once can make loading the page slower since it involves searching and transferring more data.)

You can use the Actions menu to make changes to multiple entries at once. If no entries are selected using the check boxes next to them, then the actions will apply to *all entries on all pages**. If you have selected particular entries using the check boxes then only those checked on the current page will be affected.

Depending on what sort of data you have, other views such as Compact view or Calendar view may be available. If a view is available, its tab will be enabled on the upper right corner of the view. Disabled tabs indicate the types of views that you cannot currently select.

Some changes you make to the table view simultaneously affect these other views.

For instance, compact view is only available if you have grouped entries together and is often most useful if you have also added subtotals. The columns you have added to the table view also affect how much data is shown in the calendar view.

To simplify these other views, it is often possible to change the data shown only by switching to table view, tweaking the columns, then switching back to the other view.
