Chapter 2-5: Work Fields

Domain Work Fields (Numeric Domain)


The Domain type work field specification overlay, shown Domain Work Field Additional Attributes Overlay for Alpha, Text, Token and Date Domains, displays after you select Enter from the work fields screen if the Field Type you select is DOMAIN and the domain type is NUMERIC.

Domain Work Field Specification Overlay (Numeric Domain)

The following fields are contained on the specifications overlay for Numeric Domain-Type Work fields:

Domain Name links a domain-type work field to a specific domain in the same or another APPX application.

Descriptive provides a longer, more easily understood alternative to Field Name, one that is not required to be unique within an application. If blank at all default levels, Field Name is used.

Column Hdgs designates up to two lines of column heading text. The APPX output process facility uses this text to generate standard column heading images for Start of Page and Start of Range class frames. For cosmetic reasons, the length of headings should not exceed the length of a field itself. Refer to Standard Column Heading Image for additional information.

The Domain Type Work field Specification overlay for Numeric Domains contains the following option as described in the corresponding section:
