Hiding columns

Important! While you are not restricted from hiding any columns, some require entry to complete a record or transaction.

When you generate a print preview report from data in a grid with hidden columns, all the hidden information appears in the report. If you drill down into data in the hidden columns, it will not be visible in the grid until you show the columns.

As part of the defaults for a window, you can hide columns. Hiding does not delete columns, but it does remove the data from printed reports in Quick Grids.

To hide columns:

  1. Right-click in a cell, and from the menu select Show/Hide Columns. (See the Learn more box.)
  2. The Grid View window appears.
  3. From the menu, clear the checkboxes of the columns you want to hide.
  4. Click OK.

Tip: Right-click a grid cell and select Save Current Grid View to save the grid view settings.
