Okay, my newbie question for the day.
In the instruction text under "3.2 Defining your darabase" there are 2 fields 'default' and 'valid_expr'. With the descriptions of:
default = you can enter a value to use as a default. Call &get_date to insert today's date
valid_expr = enter a regular expression to validate input
In the "db.cfg Definition of your database" they occur again. Example:
%db_def = (
Id =>[0,'numer', 5, 8, 1, " "]
Validated =>[7, 'alpha', 0, 3, 1, 'Yes', 'Yes/No']
I must be really stupid because I can't fugure out for the life of me what these last 2 positions do ..... ie: the areas after the 1. Could somebody please tell me 1.) dahh, you're right that you're a newbie and 2.) Explain in more detail what I'm just not getting.
I've really have been trying to figure this stuff out but I'm not making the connections.
Sorry :-( but I would really appreciate the help :-)
