To resize a data grid

You can resize data grids in the Detail and History sections according to the following:

  1. To adjust the width of a data grid, drag the boundary on the right side of the column heading until the column is the width you want.
  2. To adjust the height of a data grid, drag the boundary on the row heading until the row is the height you want.

    Note: When the height of a row is increased and a field contains a drop-down list, a single drop-down arrow displays. To select a value, you must double-click the single drop-down arrow (a second drop-down arrow displays at the top of the column) and click the top drop-down arrow.

  3. To hide an unused column of a data grid, drag the boundary on the left side of the column heading until the column you want to hide is no longer visible.

Example 1

In the following example, to expand the Log Text field and lengthen the Date field to display more data, drag the boundary at the end of the Log Text field to the right and the boundary at the bottom of the field to the left of the Date field:

Example 2

To hide the Full Name and Company fields on the Relationships tab to view the Relationship Name without having to scroll, drag the boundary at the beginning of the Description field to the left until you reach the end of the ID column (the cursor changes to a half I-beam to indicate a field is hidden).
