Changing the table that a layout shows

When you create a layout in a database file that contains multiple tables, you choose the table from which you want records displayed in that layout. You can later change the underlying table if necessary.

To change the table that a layout shows:

1.	In Layout mode, choose the layout you want to work with from the Layout pop-up menu.

2.	Click Layout Setup in the layout bar.

You can also click the name of the layout’s current table.

3.	In the Layout Setup dialog box, choose a table from the Show records from list.

The Show records from list includes all the table occurrences that appear in the relationships graph, including any tables added to the relationships graph from external data sources.

4.

Click OK.
