FieldTypes
See the description for DocumentTypes . The properties and methods are identical after replacing
DocumentTypes by FieldTypes and DocumentType by FieldType respectively.
FieldType
FieldType s are used at two places:
- linked to a DocumentType object, they describe the index fields for this document type,
- linked to a FieldType itself, they describe sub-fields of an index field.
Currently, the only place where FieldType s are used as sub-fields of a FieldType is the TableField . Here,
these FieldType s describe the column definition of a table.
Properties and methods of the FieldType object (excerpt):

fields, for this FieldType
Name String Name of the FieldType . For normal fields, this is
the index field name from the Ascent Capture
definition. If the

of a table, this is the column name from the
DOKuStar table definition.
