Tables allow viewing data for multiple records in tabular form. When more records exist than can be viewed on one screen, PDA Toolbox adds scroll buttons that allow the user to scroll up and down.
Tables can also be set so that double clicking on a particular item will bring up the record for editing in a different form.
To add a table, press the 'Create a New Table Object' button  and an empty table will be added to the current form.
Set the Table ID to a unique name for this table.
Set the Source Database Info (Type and Creator) to the Type and Creator ID for the data table to display
HINT: This will be the same as the Type and Creator ID from the 'Primary Database' form.
Select the Field ID's and Column Width's for the fields to display on the table
If desired, set the 'Edit with Form' property to point to the Primary Database Form for this table. This will bring up that form if a record is clicked on
Check 'Show all Records' for now.
Here's the form for viewing URL's, with the table, and a button to jump back to the Edit URL form.
Notice that I also added Label Fields across the top of the table to identify the columns.
 
Here are the two screen shots for this application.
The screen on the left allows entry of URL information
The screen on the right lists URL's. Clicking on on in the list will bring up the 'Edit URLs' screen with that record's information
(Pretty cool eh?)
