To resize the columns in a table in the Content
Frame:

columns in the table header row, until the
mouse turns into a double sided arrow.
2. Click with the mouse and hold it down while
dragging the mouse.
The column will resize as you drag the mouse.
Release the mouse when the column is the
appropriate size.
Sorting Data
Data in any table can be sorted by any of the
columns in the table. If you sort the data, the data
will be sorted accordingly the next time the table is
opened.
To sort the data by a particular column, click on the
column header.

In some cases (e.g. protocol data tables) the
columns can also be moved within the table. To
move a column within a table:
1. Move the mouse over the column header to be
moved and click.
2. Hold the mouse button down and drag the
column to its new location.
NOTE: A column line appears when you have
dragged the column to a new column location.
3. Release the mouse button when you have
dragged the column to the proper location.
To invert the sort, that is filter the data in
descending order instead of ascending order, click
the column header a second time.
Filtering Data
When the Filter button is available in the toolbar of
the Content Frame, the table is available in Filter
Mode. In Filter Mode, you are able to filter the data
by any criterion in the table. When data is filtered,
only the data matching the entered criteria is
displayed.
To filter the data in a table:
1. Click Filter.
A row with a green background appears at the
top of the table.
2. Enter criteria into the new row.
NOTE: This new column arrangement is saved for the
next time the table is opened.
