index

Indexes are used to specify the order in which records are sorted within a list. Index information is stored in the data file which is displayed in the list (e.g., the Contacts list displays data from the Contact file). Indexes included with List windows can be used to sort records in a QuickView.

Indexes in most Tabs3 Software applications are preconfigured and cannot be added, changed, or deleted. In PracticeMaster, additional user-defined indexes can be defined.
