Associated Attribute

DF_FIELD_RELATED_FILE (Integer)

Remarks

DataFlex relationships are setup through the filelist. In the filelist, all tables are assigned a number. This number is used within DataFlex to identify the table; columns are also identified by their number.

By setting the Field_Related_File and Field_Related_Field keywords, a relationship can be defined. The Data Connection Wizards in Database Builder use the foreign and primary key definitions created at the server to copy relationships when connecting to existing data. See Connecting to Existing Data for more information on the Data Connection Wizards.
