Field Descriptions The following paragraphs describe the fields on the Reference Field Value List screen.
Reference
Displays the name of the element selected on the previous screen when you navigated
to this screen.
If the qualified name displayed in this field is truncated, the Pathmaker product
displays an asterisk (*) in a field immediately to the right of the field.
To change the starting point of the list, enter a reference name, the leading characters
of a name, or a blank and press F4.
Level
Displays the nesting level of each field, according to the object's DDL description.
To change the starting point of the current list, move the cursor to a reference field in
this column and press F1.
To select a reference field for updating or deleting, move the cursor to a reference field
in this column and press F10. The Pathmaker product returns you to the previous
screen and displays the name of the reference field or detailed information about the
reference field you selected.
Field
Displays consecutive elements in a reference object. Elements from only one object are
displayed at a time.
The column to the left of the Name column shows whether the field is a primary or
alternate key:
For a primary key field, this column shows an asterisk (*).
For an alternate key field, this column shows a plus (+). (For an SQL table, if the
index contains nullable columns, the plus sign will not be displayed for that
index.)
For other fields, this column remains blank.
Pic/Type
Displays the type or picture declaration of each elementary field. No type or picture
declarations are shown for the group fields.
If you use NonStop SQL DATETIME and INTERVAL data types, this column displays
abbreviations for the declaration.
If you use the INTERVAL data type with a precision, this column displays any single-
digit precision you specify:
INTERVAL MIN(6) TO FRAC(3)
