Viewing the Structure of a Record Group
To view the structure of a record group created at design time:
- In the Object Navigator, double-click the icon beside the desired record
group to display the Property Palette.
- Under the Functional node, double-click the
Column Specifications field.
The Query Record Group Column Specification dialog
appears and displays the names of the selected columns in the Column
Name text List.
The Data Type and Length
fields display the attributes of the column currently selected in the Column
Name List.
To view the attributes of a different column:
- Select that column in the List.
Length values are displayed only for CHAR columns. For NUMBER and DATE columns,
Oracle Forms uses the default ORACLE lengths for these datatypes and disables
the Length field property.
Note: Record groups created at runtime cannot be viewed in Oracle Forms.
