Database Module

• The Database Module lets you create simple databases to organize, sort, and display records.

Unlike a spreadsheet, database information can be displayed in a variety of formats using the

drawing tools. A database can be used to create labels, lists, mail merges, or reports.

• The information is entered into Fields. Each Field is assigned a Field Type (Text, Number,

Calculation, etc.) depending on the information to be entered into that field. Some Field Types

(Value List, Pop-up Menu, Checkbox) allow you to enter a list of items the user can choose

from, helping with consistent entry of information.

Layouts

Sort

Report

• Layouts refer to the ways you want the Fields displayed. Once

layouts are created (using standard Drawing Tools) Records can

be entered and browsed.

• You use the “Rolodex” deck to scroll between Records.

• You can use Pull down menus or the tools provided to go to

other Layouts, Search for items in the database, Sort the database

by Field, or produce a Report. The Report is a designated Search

and Sort using a designated Layout.

• Records cannot be easily imported and exported, so this module

is acceptable for standalone databases (or Mail Merges with the

Word Processing Module), but should not be used if you want to

move the data to another application.
