SUMMARY

The Catalog Manager contains an AutoScreen tool that creates and runs a screen for the active table or query using the default settings in the Screen Wizard. This tool is disabled if no table or query is in use.

MORE INFORMATION

To run the AutoScreen tool, choose the AutoScreen button (above the Label tab) in Catalog Manager, or choose AutoScreen from the Tools menu.

Choosing the AutoScreen tool brings the Screen tab to the front. After the screen is generated and compiled, it runs.

Each field appears on a separate line with a label to its left.

NOTE: In FoxPro for Windows, screens created with the AutoScreen tool can later be modified using either the Screen Wizard or the Screen Builder tool. In FoxPro for MS-DOS, they can only be modified using the Screen Builder tool.
