When you are running a Entry or higher edition of CardExchange® Producer and you are connected to an database, in the Standard Object Type drop down menu all the database columns are available for selecting. The Standard Object Type Database columns also indicates the name of the connected database in the header. In this example it mentions 'Database columns (Students)'. Because CardExchange® Producer offers multiple database connections in the Professional edition and higher, multiple databases and columns can be selected here.
When selecting a database column from the list, you will see that the text area is indicated with a green rectangle. This means that the data shown is coming from the connected database and cannot be edited in the text area.
See our Database section in this Help file for more information about using databases.
