For offices coming from Lotus Approach:
- Grids of your own, as Approach's worksheets were. A table can have several grids, each
with its own name, its own fields in its own order, and its own column widths. They are kept
in the database for the whole office. Make one with New grid…, under More in Browse, in the
side panel, or on the Forms screen. Pick it in Browse beside the forms, and a Go to view
step can show it
- Export from a grid of your own writes its fields, in its order
- indiDatabase starts with the database you used last. A database you moved opens from
its new place once you have opened it there. If the database you used last is not found,
a strip at the top says where it was, and nothing new is made in its place
- A new help section, Where Your Database Is: one .idb file holds every table, form and
report, where the first one is kept on each system, and how to move it
Also in this release:
- Deleting a field in Schema names the grids that show it
- The window's title names the grid in use, such as GRID Phone list
- Computers on 1.7.2 and earlier can keep working with a database on 1.7.3. They do not
see grids of your own, and a button that shows one takes them to the usual grid. Grids of
your own need the computer that holds the database to run 1.7.3 or later
