Add column to view
When you create a Table view, your view is made up of rows of Entries and Columns which show the data in those entries.
You can add additional columns at any time to a view by clicking the Add Column link.
This will reveal a drop-down menu with the column choices that apply to the entries in view. These choices will be made up of:
- Fields from the entries in views
- Derived fields and Formulas you have previously created
- Last Modified: the date each entry was last edited
- Last Modified By: the user who last edited each entry
- Summary: a short list of all of the Field values in each entry
- ID: the unique number that Dabble DB assigns to each entry
- All Fields: a shortcut to make a column for every field in the entries in view
- New Field…: create a new field for each entry in view and add it as a column
You can also add additional columns when the Summary is visible by clicking on the appropriate field.
Tips
- If you are viewing or editing an entry, there is a shortcut button to add a column to the view from a particular field. (The button will only be visible if that field is not already visible as a column.)

The add column shortcut button in the entry editor
- Adding Derived fields or Formulas from an existing column’s menu will also result in a new column being added to the view.
- Adding and removing columns from a table view will affect the Compact view and/or the Calendar view if either is available. See the information about either view for more details.
