DOKuStar Validation for Ascent Capture Page • 40
Data
The Data object is situated below the Dataset object, parallel to the Schema object. While the Schema holds
the document definition, the
Data object holds the data itself.
The
Data object has been filled completely when the batch was opened. Although you technically could add
documents yourself, which also would show up in the Validation, there is not much use doing this since these
documents could not be transferred back to Ascent Capture when the batch is closed.
The
Data object provides access to various objects like Document, Field etc.. These objects have some
common properties and methods; these are:
Property/Method Returns Description
Activate Boolean
Activates the object; the object gets the focus.
returns False if the object cannot be activated. See
note below.
Activated Boolean Checks if the object is activated or not.
Deactivate Boolean
Deactivates the object; the object gets the focus.
returns False if the object cannot be deactivated.
See note below.
Deactivated Boolean Checks if the object is deactivated or not.
