Using Related Fields in Layouts

You saw in Hour 4 how easy it is to add a field to a layout: You just drag the Field button from the status area to the position that you want and then choose your field from the dialog that appears.

In fact, there's more to the Specify Field dialog than you saw in Hour 4. In the pop-up menu at the top, you can choose fields not only from the current table but also from related tables as well as other tables in the current database file that are not related at all. And, if you need to make a change to the database, you can open the Define Database dialog from here as shown in Figure 15.14.
