Inline editing in sharepoint 2010

The keyword itself explains the brief meaning about functionality.

Inline Editing: Choose whether an edit button on each row should be provided. This button allows users to edit the current row in the current view, without navigating to the form. Inline editing is only available on views that have their Style set to Default.

·         Open the document library in which you wants to enable that option

·         Settings

·         Document library settings

·         Scroll towards the bottom and you will see the views section

·         Click on All Documents view

·         Scroll towards the bottom and you will see a option named as Inline Editing

·         Mark the check box that says-Allow Inline Editing

·         Click OK and that’s it-you are done

·         Go back to your document library and check the results
