DaoFieldType() Function

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Purpose

Return String representation of a Dao Field type

 

Parameters

nTypeType value of a DaoField object
nAttributesAttributes value of a DaoField object

 

Returns

String representing the Field type.

 

Remark

This function differs from DaoDataType(), because it also distinguishes between Long fields and Autonumber fields, between Memo fields and Hyperlabel fields etc.

The resulting string is also more 'readable', and does not include the 'Db' prefix that the DataType defines have.
