title, and the data has been chunked together to help make visual sense. The Lease Document con-
tainer field is larger, and you can see a thumbnail version of the file itself. The Rental Fee field has
been formatted for currency, and the Lease Duration and Date Signed fields have field controls
that make data entry quick and consistent.
