Edit Property Attributes for Filter dialog box

Use this dialog box to set up and maintain specifications for IDO properties being included in a filter as either primary criteria or additional criteria. Properties included as primary criteria become components on the Primary Criteria tab of the query form. Properties included as Additional Criteria become items in the drop-down list on the Additional Criteria tab of the query form.

Field/Option Description
Label When used for primary criteria, this option becomes the caption used to label the Edit component for this property on the query form.

When used for additional criteria, this option becomes the name used to identify the property in the drop-down list on the query form.

You can either enter the literal text of the label or select a translatable string. To edit the string, click the button.

List Source This option specifies the list source for the property.
Value Is List Index If the property has a list source, selecting this option sets the property's value to the zero-based index of the selected item. If the first item is selected, the property's value is set to 0; if the second item is selected, the property's value is set to 1; and so on.

To disassociate the property's value from the index of the current list, clear this check box.

Default Form If the property uses a component class as the list source, select the name of the component class from the drop-down list.

The list index setting of the component class supplies the list source.

 To edit the component class, click the button.
