Using Grids with TeemWork
TeemWork uses grids to display all kinds of information. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when using them:
This is a grid:
In this image,
User 'Fred Leitch' has been selected
This grid is sorted by 'User ID', because the title of the User ID column is displayed in red
In some grids, clicking on a row opens up a new window, while in others, it only changes the content of the same window.
To sort a grid by a specific criteria, click on the title of the corresponding column. For example, to sort a list by alphabetical order of their first name, click on the 'First Name' title. It should become red as in the following image.
To reverse the order of list, click again on the same column title. It will become blue.
In some grids, you can select multiple entries to perform various operations, like printing more than one check at a time, or creating a group with many selected Contacts.
To enable multiple selections, click on
(sometimes called 
or
). The grid's look
should change slightly, and an additional "grey" column should appear
at the left.
To select multiple non-consecutive entries in the grid, hold
down the 'Ctrl' key on your keyboard, and click successively on the grey
'button' at the left of the row of every entry that you want to select (when you
move over the grey 'buttons' your mouse pointer becomes an arrow 
).
In the previous image, five elements have been selected.
You can also select multiple consecutive entries, by using the 'Shift' key. First, click on the first entry of the lot. Then, hold down the shift key, and click on the grey 'button' of the last entry.
Here, the user clicked first on the grey button of the 'TEST3' entry, then held the shift key and clicked on the grey button of the 'A0001' entry.
This technique is particularly useful when the entries are sorted. For example, here's how to select all the entries whose dates are between the '2002-04-25' and the '2002-10-25':
Sort the entries by date, by clicking on the title of the 'Date' column
Click on the grey button of the first entry whose date is '2002-04-25'
Hold down the shift key, and click on the grey button of the last entry whose date is '2002-10-25'
