Field types
Each field on a form accepts a particular type of information. The value you enter in a field must be appropriate for the type of information that the field holds. For example, do not type a name in a field that stores numbers. If you enter an incorrect value, an error message appears and you can't tab out of the cell until you enter a value in the correct format.
The field types in the table below are supported.
