= SUMMARY =

To move a field (including the field name), place the cursor in the field to move and do the following:


 * 1) From the View menu, choose List (ALT, V, L).
 * 2) From the Select menu, choose Field (ALT, S, F) to select the entire field.
 * 3) From the Edit menu, choose Move (ALT, E, M), move the cursor to the new location, and press ENTER.

To position the new column to the left of an existing column, place the cursor at the top of the existing column and press ENTER. This will move the field contents and the field title to the left of the column.

To copy a single field from one database to another, copy the field from the List screen by choosing Copy from the Edit menu (ALT, E, C). It is not possible to copy a single field from the Form screen. The option available for copying from the Form screen is Copy Record, which copies all of the information in the record, not just the selected field.
