Two types of fields can be created within the Field Library: Edit Fields and Multi Choice Fields. Each field has sub-types that determines how data is entered. Two additional field types, Lookup and Comment Fields, can only be created directly within a form, and not in the Field Library. See Add and Manage Fields for more information on fields.
