666 Chapter 22 Store and Access Contact Information<br />

User-Defined Fields<br />

If you’d like to save information that doesn’t fit into the default contact record<br />

fields, you can create a custom field. A custom field can contain information such<br />

as text, numbers, percentages, currency, Yes/No answers, dates, times, durations,<br />

keywords, and formulas.<br />

You can create a custom information field from any view of the All Fields page <strong>by</strong><br />

clicking the New button in the lower-left corner of the page and then specifying<br />

the name, type, and format of the field in the New Column dialog box that opens.<br />

Custom fields can be formatted to contain many specific types of information.<br />

Custom fields appear when you filter the All Fields page on User-Defined Fields<br />

In This Folder. When you enter information in the custom field for a specific contact,<br />

it also appears in the User-Defined Fields In This Item list within that contact<br />

record.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
