Specifying table and column properties

After a table has been created and saved, you can specify the properties of a table and of any column in a table. Table properties include the fonts used for headers, labels, and data, and a comment that you can associate with the table. Column properties include the text used for headers and labels, display formats, validation rules, and edit styles used for data (also known as a column’s extended attributes), and a comment you can associate with the column.

NoteExtended attribute system tables not supported for UltraLite databases Comments, font properties, and extended attributes are stored in the PocketBuilder extended attribute system tables. System tables are not supported in UltraLite databases, but you can still take advantage of extended attributes in your DataWindow objects. For more information, see “Using extended attributes with an UltraLite application”.
