Tablefields (deprecated)

The columns of a deprecated table field


Deprecated. Tablefields are used with the table formfield type, which is deprecated. Use the list field type instead: it provides the same functionality with a drilldown subform and full output modelling support.

Tablefields are the field types used within a table formfield. Each column of a table is defined by a tablefield, which sets the data entry control for that column.

Tablefields resemble regular formfields, but with some restrictions, because they operate within the context of a row.


Common Properties

All tablefields share two fundamental properties:

  • name (string, required): the unique identifier of the column
  • type (string, required): the field type, which determines the page below that describes the available properties
