You can use ViewX to add extra fields (custom fields) to the database. The fields can be used to store links to other database items, lists of items (combo boxes), strings (data entry fields), Boolean configuration data (check boxes), or can be extra value fields.
The extra fields allow you to define additional configuration settings that are specific to your system. They also allow your system to store additional values that can be used by various applications.
For more information on the different Types of Extra Database Field, see the topics that are listed in the gray footer section at the bottom of this topic. Select the relevant entry to display the topic that you require.
We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the database structure before you attempt to add or remove database fields (see Welcome to the Guide to the Database).
