Adding fields
To add a field to a form:
1 Open the form.
2 Choose Fields, then the field category, then the type of field you want.
The field type is displayed at "Field type" on the Field Attributes form. Specific field types are described later in this help.
3 Click the form where you want the field to appear.
If you just click the form, the field is drawn in a default shape and size, which you can change. If you click and drag the cursor, you can shape and size the field before it is drawn.
Assigning field IDs
When you add a field, FirstClass Designer automatically assigns a field ID and displays it at "Field ID" on the Field Attributes form. You can change this ID. If you are told that the ID you chose isn't unique, click Unique ID to make FirstClass Designer assign a new, unique ID.
