Dimension CreateAttributeTable

Creates one or more attribute tables for a dimension.

These characters are not allowed for attribute names: [ ] \ / : * ? " < > | <TAB> <LF> <CR>.

The maximum length of an attribute name is 50 characters or 150 bytes. If an attribute name is greater than 50 characters or 150 bytes, ErrorID = 89 is returned.

Spaces are trimmed automatically at the beginning and the end of an attribute name. The attribute table is created using the trimmed name. Other white spaces are not allowed.
