Files and Fields naming

AS/400 has many restrictions in files and fields naming WinDev doesn’t have.

     Accentuated characters are nor supported.

     Blank character is not allowed in long names.

     Length of a long name is limited.

Easycom support long names for files and fields. Long names on AS/400 are created by SQL, or they are the DDS Alias for the fields.

 

By setting Connection property LITERALCASE, you can manage some naming rules for WinDev names.

When file description is exported to AS/400 using the DDS Builder, Easycom converts WinDev names into AS/400 compliant names.
