8).Save it.
9).Go to utilities menu click table contents select create & enter the field values then select display in table contents & you can view the table values with field lables. 


While Creating the Table, we Can Provide the technical attributes such as Data type, Length & Description of the Fields in 2 – ways
a).One way is Providing the technical attributes Directly.
i.e., Provide the Data type, Length and Description Individually.
b).2nd way is providing the technical attributes through Data Elements and Domains.
i.e Provide the Data type, Length and Description by grouping into Data Elements and Domains.

Note: We Never Provide the Technical attributes of the field using Direct type instead it is through Domains & Data Elements.
