| Read Access: | Get Data_File item# to IntegerVariable |
| Write Access: | Set Data_File item# to IntegerVariable/Value |
Each entry_item may have a field in a database file associated with it. The Data_file property identifies the database file that contains the field from which data is to be stored, retrieved, and cleared. Data_files are most often set by the composition of the entry_item statement itself.
entry_item customer.name
They may also be set using the data_file message. This may be done if an entry item needs to be set to another file than the initialized one.
set data_file 0 to customer.File_Number get data_file 0 to filenumber
If the entry_item is not associated with a data field (it is associated with an expression or variable) the value of this property is 0.
