General Attribute Properties Tab

Option Description

Caption

A user-friendly name for the attribute. The caption will be used as the field label in the Form View and the column header in the List View. If a caption is not specified, the field name will be used.

Description

A description of the field. This will appear as a tool-tip when the user hovers their mouse over the field label in browsers that support it.

Notes

For Microsoft Access databases the Caption and Description properties correspond to the Caption and Description properties from the table design. For other databases these properties are stored with the data sources file.
