Lists

A list is a window that scrolls over records. You can sort and filter the displayed records. RAM Commander lists have the added feature of allowing you to directly manipulate records. Lists are used in RAM Commander for projects and library records.

Note Even though all the examples below refer to the Library list, they can equally apply to all the other lists generated by RAM Commander such as component libraries and cross-reference libraries.
