Abstract: Methods and apparatus for associating a document with a database field value are disclosed. For example, a user of an electronic record management system may be viewing a document and/or metadata associated with a document on a primary display, such as a desktop computer display. In addition, the user may be viewing various database fields and/or potential values for those fields on a secondary display, such as a tablet device. The user can then select certain user interface objects, such as buttons, and/or perform certain predefined user gestures, such as a left swipe, on the secondary display. As a result, one or more database fields associated with the document are populated with one or more values. For example, the user may be executing an electronic document review application on a desktop computer while coding documents using a tablet device synchronized to the electronic document review application via the Internet.
