Adding Records

Writable databases may have records added using the Add Record Form dialog (shown below). This dialog contains text boxes for each named field in the database and movement between fields is most readily achieved using the Tab key. Clicking on the Next Record button, or typing <Alt>N, allows another new record to be added.

The Print on OK checkbox allows the user to choose to print the record(s) just added when the OK button is pushed.

Whether or not the Print on OK checkbox is checked, pushing the OK button will cause the form to be displayed again, ready for further records. If no more records are to be added simply push the Cancel button or press the Escape key to close the form.

The Add Record Form also provides facilities for inserting the current date/time, the name of an image file, or a unique ID (useful for barcoding a record) while the record data is being keyed in.
