You want to view a list of fields in the table. In which of the following views will you open the table?

ADesign

BPivot Table

CLayout

DDatasheet
Explanation:
In order to view a list of fields in the table, you must open the table in the Design view.The Design view of a table displays its fields and datatypes. New fields can be added to the table and assigned to a datatype. A user cannot insert data in this view. The datatype of a field can be formatted and other table properties such as field size, validation rule, etc., can be set for the field.

The datatype of the new field is defined by the data inserted in it by a user. The default datatype is text. The datatype can be explicitly assigned to a field through the Datatype list in the Data type and Formatting group on the DataSheet tab.

Answer option C is incorrect. You can use Layout view to make changes in the design while you view data in a form or report
Answer option B is incorrect. The PivotTable view of a table can be used to display the data of a table in the desired format. This view cannot be used to create or delete a field or modify its properties. The data can be filtered according to fields. When the PivotTable view is opened, a blank work area is displayed and the columns of the table are displayed in the Pivot Table Field List window. A user has to drag and drop the fields to view the desired result.
