Forms
Each Form has 4 ways to help you navigate nuBuilder Forte.

Procedure Action Buttons
There are 2 ways to run a Procedure.

Custom Action Buttons
- Custom - Extra Buttons can be created using nuAddActionButton().
Breadcrumbs
As you click through different forms, a Breadcrumb will be created above the Browse or Edit Form.
