Table Wizard: Step 2 – Modify Field Settings

  • Article

Change field settings for the table you are creating. For example, you can change the maximum width of a character field, or the number of decimal places allowed in a numeric field.

You can specify whether fields can contain null values and you can change the field caption or type.

If you are creating your table in a database, you can also select one of the predefined data input masks for each field type or create a custom input mask. The Format windows display the mask and format code you choose.
