The example database tmw.dbf (in form view)
If a tabular list of data records appears instead of a form like the one pictured
above, you can invoke View > Form to switch to the form view.
If you like, you can use the example database TMW.DBF as your personal address
database right away. It includes all the database fields needed to store addresses:
SALUT_ADDR
SALUT_BODY
NAME1
NAME2
FIRSTNAME
STREET
STATE_ZIP
CITY
Form of address (e.g. “Mr.”)
Salutation in a letter (e.g. “Dear Mr. Smith”)
