Zach, I'm well aware of that. But why would you enter anything into that field unless, somehow, you could access it later?

Hi all,

There are just a few features of BrailleNote's excellent
database
manager that I don't quite understand. Maybe someone could
clear
these up for me.

1.  If you have a password field, then it does not appear that
there is ever a way to view any passwords that you have entered
into that field. Is there, , in fact, a way to do this? If
not,
why would one use this type of field?

2.  Changing the field context between, for example, general and
town/city, does not seem to have any effect. What is the
effect?

3.  Why would you want to set the display option to hidden?  In
that case it would appear that the field would become
permanently
inaccessible unless you were to go in and modify the database
definition, and since records can't be exported into other
applications, I don't immediately see a point to this.

Other than the above, though, I love the BrailleNote's database
manager, so don't take this message as being too critical.

All the best,

Grant
