File and File_Field Interfaces

Many of the DataDictionary methods contain a two variants of the same message: Field_Message and File_Field_Message. For a complete description of these messages please refer to The Field and File_Field DD Interfaces.

The Field_ version of a message must use the keyword FIELD to identify the Table.Column name. The File_Field_ version must use the keyword FILE_FIELD to identify the Table.Column name. These should never be mixed!

// When using Field_ message use the FIELD keyword
Set Field_Option_Clear Field Customer.Name to DD_NoPut

// When using the File_Field_ message use the FILE_FIELD keyword
Set File_Field_Option_Clear of oCustomer_DD File_Field Customer.Name to DD_NoPut
