There are numerous options available for each field, depending on the field type. To review these 
options for the current field, press CONTROL with 2 after the Field Type prompt. The Field 
Options list will be displayed as described in detail in 18.3.3 Field Options.  

Once you have added all the fields you require and are fairly satisfied with them, you are then ready 
to move onto the next stage. You can return to the Field Definition List later to make further 
changes if needed. To exit the Field Definition List, press ESCAPE. KeyBase will prompt: 
"Sort Order is Reason for Appointment. Change?".  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

18.3.2 

Field Types. 

Note: If you decide to change a field type after records have been added, any fields that had been 
assigned with the original field type will not be displayed. This situation does not apply for string 
and document field types as they are interchangeable. If you have entered a significant number of 
records and you want to keep the database, make a copy of the KeyBase Definition File in a 
different folder. Make the required changes in the copy and then use the Copy Records option (from 
the KeyBase Menu) to copy the data from your old database into your new database. Delete the 
original database and move the new database to a location where you wish to store it. 

The 6 Field Type options are described in the following sections:
