Table Commands

How can I modify breakdown tables in my estimates, purchases and other transactions?

Goldenseal small business software version 2.4 adds three commands that help you to work with breakdown tables.

Inserting Rows

To insert a row in the middle of a breakdown table, follow these steps:

  1. Click anywhere in the row that you'd like to move down so there is a blank row above it.
  2. Choose Table from the Edit menu, and choose Insert Row from the submenu.
  3. Goldenseal will insert an empty row at the selected location.

HINT-- In newer versions of Goldenseal, you can also hold down the Control key (Windows) or Options key (Mac) and then click in a row to add a blank row there.

Fill Down

To fill a table row with the same data that is in the row above it, follow these steps:

  1. Click anywhere in the row that you'd like to fill.
  2. Choose Table from the Edit menu, and choose Fill Down from the submenu.
  3. Goldenseal will copy the data from the row above it, into the selected row.

Deleting Rows

To delete a row from a breakdown table, follow these steps:

  1. Click anywhere in the row that you'd like to remove.
  2. Choose Table from the Edit menu, and choose Delete Row from the submenu.
  3. Goldenseal will remove the selected row.

HINT-- In newer versions of Goldenseal, you can also hold down the Shift key along with the Control key (Windows) or Options key (Mac) and then click in a row to delete that row.

Moving Rows

To move a table row to a new location, follow these steps:

  1. Hold down the Control key on your keyboard.
  2. Click anywhere in the row that you'd like to move. The cursor will change to a small hand.
  3. Keep holding down the mouse button and drag to the new location.
  4. When you lift the mouse button, Goldenseal will move the selected row to the new location.
