Viewing Data on Multiple-Instance, User-Defined Tabs in a Non-Grid Format

You can view or enter/edit data in a multi-instance, user-defined tab in a non-grid format by opening a window for a specific row in the data grid. The row-specific data window displays if you double-click on an empty data grid row.

If you have permission to edit the values in the data grid, you can edit values in the row-specific data window. Any values changed in this window are automatically updated in the corresponding data grid rows when you click OK on this window. If you click Cancel, any values changed in the window will not be transferred to the corresponding grid row.

If you have permission to enter records in the data grid, you can enter new records directly in the row-specific data window. Records entered in the row-specific data window will be added to the data grid when you click OK.

Changes or additions made in the row-specific data window are not saved to the database until you click Save on the Manage Customers window.

If the data grid is read-only, a record can be viewed in a row-specific data window, but the information in the window cannot be edited and you cannot enter new records in the window.

Validation of values entered in the row-specific data window uses the same logic as the validation of values entered in the data grid. Values entered in the row-specific data window are saved to the database after you click OK on the row-specific data window and then clicking Save on the Manage customers window.

Example of user-defined tab (from Customers, find a customer record, then select the user-defined tab)

Example of the first row from the multi-instance user-defined tab shown in previous example displayed in a window format (in the data grid, double-click on the gray box located to the left of the row you want to view)
