Setting whether fields are visible in a table
It is always helpful to tailor the way your data is displayed and organized to best suit the needs of your current analysis. One way to simplify working with a table or layer is to only display the fields that are relevant for your current task.
- Open the table.
-
Right-click the field heading and click Turn Field Off.
Another quick way of turning off a field from the Table window is to hold down the CTRL key and double-click the field heading. To turn all the fields on again, choose the Turn All Fields On command from the Table Options menu.
