LAd os oprette en formular med information om personer, dvs. en formular forbundet til tabellen personer.

- Klik på knappen i værktøjslinjen .
- Klik i formularen. En ny tekstboks bliver nu placeret der, hvor du klikkede. Før du slipper museknappen kan du trække musen for at angive kontrollens ønskede størrelse.
- If needed, move the inserted widget using drag & drop to a desired position. You can resize the widget afterwards by dragging one of the small boxes appearing near its corners. Note that the boxes are only visible when the widget is selected. If you select another widget or the form surface, the boxes disappear.
- Click the toolbar button again and click on the form surface to insert another widget. Repeat this action once again until you get three text boxes inserted in your form. For sake of simplicity we will limit ourselves to three data fields.
