Working with rows in a table

Editing more than one table row at a time is sometimes called “batch editing,” or “batch processing.”

  1. Select the rows in the table to process using the Ctrl or Shift keys while you click the desired rows.
  2. To display the popup menu of available controls and actions, right-click on the selected rows.
  3. Select the control or action.
  4. If the system opens a window, make your selection and click OK.
Note: Some actions, such as moving rows, or editing certain types of fields, are not appropriate for batch editing. In these cases – even though you can select multiple rows in the table, the action will be performed on only one (usually the top, or highest) selected record in the table.
