Moving or copying records within a database

Moving records

    To move records within a database:
    1 If you're not already in Browse or List mode, choose Browse or List from the Layout menu.
    2 Select one or more records.
    3 Drag the selected records up or down to a new position in the database.

    Tip: Moving records is most useful when you want to rearrange just a few records. To arrange all records in alphabetical or numerical order, it's much faster to sort the records.

Copying records

    To copy a record within a database:
    1 If you're not already in Browse or List mode, choose Browse or List from the Layout menu.
    2 Select a record.
    3 Choose Duplicate Record from the Edit menu.
    The new record appears at the end of the database.
