Automatically displaying fields that were non-displayed when the fields are filter fields

A method comprising:

• displaying a table of data as a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, the table of data having a plurality of records, each record having one or more values for each of at least one of a plurality of fields of the table of data, each row corresponding to a record of the table of data and each column corresponding to a field of the table of data, the plurality of fields greater in number than the plurality of columns such that at least one of the plurality of fields is not displayed;
• filtering the table of data by one or more selected values for each of at least one of the plurality of fields that are not displayed, to yield one or more result records;
• and,
• redisplaying the table of data as the plurality of rows and the plurality of columns such that the values of the result records for each field that was filtered are now displayed automatically and without direct user instruction to be displayed.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a computer-readable medium to store a plurality of records, each record having one or more values for a plurality of fields, the fields dynamically dividable into one or more displayed fields and one or more non-displayed fields, the values of each record being displayed for the displayed fields and not displayed for the non-displayed fields;
• and,
• a computer program executed by the processors to filter the records by one or more selected values for each of one or more filter fields to yield one or more result records, and to display the result records, including automatically displaying the values of each result record for each filter field, regardless whether the filter field is one of the displayed fields or one of the non-displayed fields.

A computer-readable medium having a computer program stored thereon comprising:

• a first computer program part to display a table of data as a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, the table of data having a plurality of records, each record having one or more values for each of at least one of a plurality of fields of the table of data, each row corresponding to a record of the table of data and each column corresponding to a field of the table of data, the fields greater in number than the columns such that at least one of the fields is not displayed;
• a second computer program part to filter the table of data by one or more selected values for each of at least one of the fields that are not displayed, to yield one or more result records;
• and,
• a third computer program part to redisplay the table of data as the rows and the columns such that the values of the result records for each field that was filtered are now displayed automatically and without direct user instruction to be displayed.
