Specify DataView Settings

Use this form to specify the settings for a DataView to be displayed within a DataView component. Within this dialog box, you can specify:

  • What type of DataView (Mode) the component is being used to display
  • Whether the DataView should be displayed when the form opens or only when the DataView component has the focus (Load Just In Time)
  • The options and settings particular to the designated mode
  • What form events, if any, to generate when the DataView component is displayed
  • Any input parameters to be used when the DataView query is performed

This form is used only with DataView components.

When you first access this dialog box, use the Mode field to specify what type of DataView you want to use the DataView component for.

General section settings

When you select the Mode, different options in the General section are displayed or enabled/disabled, depending on the selected mode.

Input Parameters section settings

The Input Parameters section allows you to specify up to 50 input parameters to be used when the DataView query is performed. These input parameters are applied in the order in which they appear on this tab.

Input parameters can consist of IDO string labels (or other translatable strings), variable specifications, property specifications, and other expressions as required by (usually) the stored procedure.
