(See Chapter 1-3 for a discussion of the layout of the datafile window.)
If a datafile has fields, the area above the Freeform Text Area has two modes. If the datafile is freeform only, with no fields, there is only one view; it is always in List View, showing just the first line of the Freeform Text Area.
If a datafile has fields, it will show either a list of records with the fields in columns (List View), or the fields of the current record in a vertical list (Basic View). You can toggle back and forth between the two views with a button in the Toolbar. The button changes, depending on the current view.
Go to List View
Go to Basic View
You can also switch between view by selecting Switch View under the View menu, or by typing command-shift-V.
