All 29 files are related in various combinations, but I'm not sure all of them are related to any single file in which you could create this layout. In Access' table view, you would need to add each of the tables you wanted to view, which is the equivalent in FileMaker of creating the relationships to make the related fields visible. Also, some of these relationships, names to payments for example, are one-to-many. Further, note that the Data Dictionary for version 1.02 contains 1772 records. A layout with all of these fields in Table View might not be very convenient. Each file has an "All Fields" layout with all the fields in that file in standard layout form, and this can be switched to Table View with a single click. Depending on what you need to look for, it might be more convenient to just jump to the file you want and look at that layout. The Data Dictionary will tell you which field is in which file, and what it is intended to be used for. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
