Another way in doing this is...

- Open the Data Dictionary Manager under System Manager Module
- Create your custom table where you want to save your information
- Check the Show On List option for the columns you want to be viewed on the grid of your maintenance form
- Open the User Role Manager under System Manager Module
- Select the role you want to customize
- Select the module you want to customize
- From any folder, right-mouse click and select New Menu Item and give it a description
- Then right-mouse click to your newly created menu and select Assign Custom Table.
- Select from the list your custom table that you've created using the Data Dictionary Manager
- By default the form created is of type List/Detail. You will see this under the Type property from the property window

Keep in mind that this type of form is being reflected by any changes you make on your custom table from the data dictionary manager. For example, if you change some options like Show On List, Searchable, Required, etc. from the data dictionary it will be implemented on your maintenance form since it was assigned in the user role to the custom table.

You can also load the data dictionary and user role managers using the SDK.  If you need to deploy your changes just make sure you script out both data dictionary and user role.  Also available in the SDK.
