Object table

 

Top  Previous  Next

 

This option allows you to import and export the Object table file (.TAB) as an ASCII file (.TBS) for editing.  These files describe the relationship between data and the objects drawn to represent the data.  Only one of these is necessary per installation; however, multiple ones may be desired.  For more information see Object table file.

 

       N                New: This option will create a new Object table file for a new configuration.
       E                Edit: This option will bring up the current Object table file for editing as defined in the File names dialog.
       T                To as ASCII: This will write a .TBS file based on an existing .TAB file.  You will be prompted for both file names.
       F                From ASCII: This will write a .TAB file based on an ASCII .TBS file.  This process is performed automatically during editing of the .TBS file if the object table name matches the name currently specified for the object table in the file names box.
