String Field Options
By default, all string fields in a SmartList have no formatting. You can select the format of the string to control how it will be displayed in SmartList.
To set string field options:
| 1. | Select a string field from the Fields scrolling window. |
| 2. | Click the expansion button above the Fields scrolling window. |
| 3. | Select the string format. This format defines how the string will be displayed in the SmartList. |
| 4. | If the string format selected was Other Mask, enter the string mask. A string mask is used to add static characters to a string, such as parentheses, spaces or dashes. A capital X is used as a placeholder to represent alphanumeric characters that will appear in the string. All other characters will be used to change the way the string is displayed after it has been entered. |
| 5. | Click Save. |
To set string field options for multiple fields:
| 1. | Select Options >> Edit Field Settings >> String Fields. |
