# View records

Once you enter records in your application, you'll want to see them from time to time.

To view a saved record:

1. Open a [report](/v1/docs/using-reports-and-charts) of the application that contains the record you want to view, or go to the [table Home page](/v1/docs/using-the-table-home-page) for the table that contains the record.
2. Select ![View record](https://cdn.document360.io/dd260e4e-10bb-4b66-8fb3-5504c272b904/Images/Documentation/vr(1).gif?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-16T02%3A42%3A28Z&se=2026-10-16T03%3A42%3A28Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=mWJn8iw%2Bv3mjgvfhI4E5VlwceXt%2BPpBHRNUkqzIyTcg%3D) next to the entry that you want to view. Quickbase displays the record.
3. From this page you can do any of the following:
  - Select **Next** to view the next record in the table.
  - Select **Return** to go back to the report or table Home page you came from.
  - Select **Edit** in the Page bar to make changes to the record.
  - Select **Email** in the Page bar to email the record to someone.
  - Select **More > Copy this *record*** to make a copy of the record.
  - Select **More > New notification** to create a new personal email notification. Notifications let you know when records have been changed.
  - Select **More > Print** to print the record.
  - Select **More > Delete this *record*** to delete the record from the application.
  - Select **Return** to go back to the report or table Home page you came from.

> [!NOTE]
> If you've just viewed a record, it appears on your [recently viewed records list](/v1/docs/find-recently-viewed-data-and-favorite-reports). To access this list, select **Favorites** on the Global bar, and open the **Recently visited in this app** section.
