Reference Values

To improve performance and to simplify the database for reference lists that contain only a few values (such as Service, StartType, Countries), Docusnap does not use separate tables, but rather reference values.

Each reference value consists of a filter value, an ID and the text in German and English, respectively.

Docusnap controls can either refer to a table or to a reference value. This means that the selection list for a combo box can be populated from either a physical database table or a specific type of reference values.

The defined reference values are stored in the tSysInitials table and will be checked for possible changes each time you start Docusnap.
