How do I get my database to add a new line automatically when entering information in a record.

What I'm trying to do is add a new line like the Time Billing database that comes with FM 7.0.

I want to enter information like date and notes about a client and as soon as those fields have information in them, a new line below it is created for a new entry.

I have tried to have a look at the Time Billing database but cant make much from it besides that they are using a portal, is this reqired for what I am trying to do?

What would be the way to make this work?

Yes, you need a portal. Those data reside in another table or file, where a new record is created every time when you add a new line to the portal (make sure that the relationship by which this portal is told out of which other table/file it gets its data has the option 'allow creation of records' ticked.)
