| Committing data in records |
| Unlike most word processing applications, FileMaker Pro saves your data as you work. This is called committing data. Data is committed when you: |
 |
select another record |
|
click anywhere outside of the current field |
|
Windows: press Enter on the numeric keypad, or Ctrl+Enter on computers without a numeric keypad |
|
Mac OS: press Enter (not Return) |
|
Switch to another mode |
| Notes |
|
If you enter data incorrectly in a record, you can restore the original data to the record as long as the information is not committed. For more information, see Restoring data in records. |
|
When you change related data (such as related records displayed in a portal), these changes are not committed until you commit the record that is displaying the related data. |
