Add Attributes in a Case Table

How To... > Work with Case Tables > Add Attributes in a Case Table

You can add an attribute at the new attribute prompt or before a selected attribute.

To add an attribute at the new attribute prompt:

1.	Click <new>. (If necessary, scroll to the far right of the table to see the prompt.)

2.	Type the attribute name and press Enter or Return on your keyboard to accept the attribute name. If you have more than one attribute to add, press Tab to move to the next column.

Note: Attribute names must begin with a letter and can contain only letters, numbers, and underscores (_). See Tips for Naming Attributes for more detail. If you type an invalid name, Fathom warns you of your error and removes invalid characters. If you don’t want to keep the name Fathom gives you, double-click the name to change it.

To add an attribute before the last attribute:

1.	Select the attribute to the right of where you want to add the new attribute.

2.	Choose Table \| New Attribute.

3.	In the dialog box, type the name of the new attribute and click OK.

If you want to add attributes, but don’t have a case table of the collection, you can also Add an Attribute to a Collection using the collection’s inspector.
