Editing a field heading

Use this procedure to edit an existing field heading. Field headings are located in the <Prefix>CON<lng code> files.

Note:  The heading ID cannot be modified. Only the Heading field and any type (CHAR or DEC) can be edited. A heading can be edited only if the user has a green lock icon.
  1. In the Language Objects pane, select a heading that you want to edit. The Edit CON Object pane is displayed.
  2. Select Field Heading. The properties are displayed.
  3. Specify this information:
    Heading ID
    You cannot modify the Field Heading ID. This is a read-only field.
    Suffix

    This is the content of the field heading, which depends on the suffix, as follows:

    • AA – the entire field heading that can accommodate up to 40 characters. By default, the heading starts with the letter W.

    • 03 – first three positions or characters of the field heading

    • 05 – first five positions or characters of the field heading

    • 10 – first ten positions or characters of the field heading

    • 15 – first 15 positions or characters of the field heading

    • C0 – column heading showing the first 15 characters

    • C1 – first row of a two-row column heading showing the first 15 characters

    • C2– second row of a two-row column heading showing the first 15 characters

  4. Click the object name to reflect the changes. An asterisk (*) is displayed on the second column of the modified heading in the Language Objects pane.
