The extended attribute system tables are a set of tables maintained by the Database painter in InfoMaker or PowerBuilder. The extended attribute system tables contain information about database tables and columns. Extended attribute information extends database definitions.
When creating a form, InfoMaker uses the following information from the extended attribute system tables:
For |
InfoMaker uses |
|---|---|
Tables |

Columns |

For example, labels and headings you defined for columns in the Database painter are used in the generated form. Similarly, if you associated an edit style with a column in the Database painter, that edit style is automatically used for the column in the form.
For more information about the repository, see Chapter 3, “Managing the Database” and Appendix B, “The Extended Attribute System Tables.”
At this point, you have a functioning form. You should save it before making any changes.
