•When you display existing fields that are not on the current layout in Table View, they are not added to the layout so they do not appear in any view other than Table View. Likewise, if you hide fields in Table View, fields are not removed from the layout and are visible when users view the layout in other views.

•Fields on the current layout are marked with a lock icon

in the Modify Table View dialog box, indicating they can’t be removed from the list. You can prevent these fields from displaying in Table View by clearing their checkboxes.

•When you add fields (columns) in Table View, the style and point size of the font are determined by the layout theme’s default font settings. If you want to change the font characteristics for a field, you must use Layout mode to format the field.
