Click the Switch to List View icon to switch to the list view of the hub form. In this view, fields are displayed in columns in one grid on the form rather than on separate tabs. Hub records are displayed in each row in the grid. This makes it easy to compare and update multiple records at one time because you do not have to open individual records. You can add, remove, or change the order of the columns in the grid by clicking to the right of the grid. This opens the List View Settings dialog box.

For more information and instructions on how to use list view, see Hubs Basics.

After you have switched to list view, click the Switch to Detailed View icon to switch back to the detailed view of the form. Detail view is the default view that displays when you open a hub for the first time; thereafter, the view that was active when you closed the application will display when you open. In detailed view, all fields in the hub are displayed on tabs on the hub form. The detail view is the format that is described in help topics in the Help system.
