#165 detail/new view improvement
Hello.
I'm using one complex database for tracking computers
on the secondary school where I'm working as network
administrator. Originally I used Thinking Bytes database
with linked tables (manufacturers, extension cards,
mainboards .... whole computer from this dbs).
As in the whole computer DB I'm using about 28 fields,
I like the ThinkDB formular view with separate cards (for
example for summary, CPU, cards, installed SW and so
on). I tried pilotDB and liked it due to his REAL db linking
support (with deep more than 1 as ThinkDB and others
flat style DBs), but I'm missing the form view.
The datail/new recod view could be good replacement
of ThinkDB's FormView when would be possible to add
special field item (called for example separator), which
couldn't have any value and which could be in detail view
displayed in bold and so group parts of filed which
logically belongs together.
Example of wished view - due to my horrible english ;o)
