How do you make column changes on Alarm Status & Journal tables? I can’t find it and don’t want to make a custom table unless that is the only way. Thanks in advance!

What kind of changes are you wanting to make? Just which columns are visible or column order? If that’s the case, run the page in the designer and right click on the column header.

I do want to change column info however right clicking gives only row properties.

Can you be specific about what you would like to change? What is “column info”? What columns appear? Column widths, order?

Typically all these are adjusted when the display is in “run” mode, then you make the changes, exit “run” mode and then turn off the ability for the user to make those adjustments (if you don’t want them to). There are other things you can do, like stylize the columns (change color) or programmatically change things, but its much more complicated and requires a start-up script for the display
