Domino Designer 6: A Developer’s Handbook

4.2. Creating a field

In this section we describe how to create a field in a form, and how to change the properties of the field.

We will add a combobox field in the form. This field will demonstrate how to use keyword fields on the Web. The combobox field will allow you to choose one keyword.

1.	To begin, create a new TeamRoom database as described 3.1.1, “Creating a database” on page 48.
2.	Open the Main Document form listed in the View pane.
3.	Type the static text: Background Color; refer to Figure 4-14, “The TeamRoom database in Notes 6” on page 98.
4.	Next to the static text, create the field Color. To do so, select Create - Field. Tip: You can also display a pop-up menu by clicking the right mouse button and selecting Create Field.
