Question: Can I copy a layout from one ClarisWorks database to another?
Unfortunately ClarisWorks does not have this capability.
The workaround: Record a macro as you are creating the layout in the first file. Begin recording, then switch to layout mode, add fields and any graphics you may wish to add, resize fields, etc. Once you've finished the layout, stop recording.
Then open the second database and play back the macro. This method works even if the field names are not the same. (For example, if you've chosen to use the first five fields on the layout in the first file, the macro will place the first five fields on the layout of the second file - even if the two files have different field names).
