Hi,

On a standard Physical Data Model diagram, the table symbol normally displays the column name followed by the Data Type(qualifier) etc

We have a request to display the Domain name instead of the Data Type.

Has anybody else had the urge to do this?
Is this possible?

Done it

with a minor usrprops modification and using a user defined column_script (placed in usr_fn.bas) based on fmtERAttr in fmtscrpt.bas. File will need to placed in users SA directory.

Definition "Table"
{
CHAPTER "Columns"
PROPERTY "Description"
{ EDIT COMPLETE
LISTOF "Column" FROM "Data Element"
KEYED BY {"Model", "Source Diagram Name", "DBMS", "Database Name", "Owner Name", "Table Name":"Name", "Name"}
RELATE BY "uses"
ASGRID
COPYSCRIPT OnCopyEntityDesc
EDITCLASS SACPropertyColumnGrid
Label "Columns"
LENGTH 4096
ZOOMABLE
DISPLAY { FORMAT Key LEGEND "Key" }
DISPLAY { FORMAT NonKey LEGEND "Non-Key" }
DISPLAY { FORMAT COLUMN_SCRIPT _FmtERAttr LEGEND "Columns" }
DISPLAY { FORMAT COLUMN_SCRIPT fmtERAttrXXXX LEGEND "ColumnsXXXX" }

}

}


User can now display what ever version he likes.
