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.
Click to filter the grid contents based on column values. For information about how the filter works, see Filter the Grid Results. For information about selecting columns, see Select Columns for a Grid. For more information and instructions on how to use list view, see Use the List View. |
