Is there an easy way to change the fields printed when

"Print Dict Listing" is selected from the Table Builder.

I would like to include the display length and leave out the

S/Multi field….

Thanks

Steve,

With List_Dict you can specify which columns to list, and which columns to sort on. The listing doesn't go directly to the printer, but that shouldn't be any problem. See . I assume you can use the following parameter values:

'column_data_type'

'column_display_len'

'column_foreign_name'

'column_foreign_type'

'column_just'

'column_master'

'column_name'

'column_part'

'column_pos'

'column_type'

'master_flag'

'table_database_id'

'table_foreign_name'

'table_name'

Hi Steve,

LIST_DICT crashes on my machine (Win2000, OI 3.7.2) if the table being called is greater than 20 characters, so I wrote a new one. Its easy enough to REDUCE the dictionary of the file you are querying to get the fieldnames - I'd suggest sorting by the following:

'COLUMN_POS':@FM:'COLUMN_PART':@FM:'COLUMN_NAME'

then extract whatever information you want (generally from %FIELDS%) and display it appropriately.
