MRALD Form Builder Step #1



What is the page title and why is it required?

The page title is the phrase that will appear in multiple places in the MRALD system after the form has been created. Although it is only a line in the xml file, the page title will appear both as the title and header of the created form as well as the text for the link to the form from the main page. In addition, if you desire to 'bookmark' or add the page to your 'favorites', the page title will also appear as the name of the bookmark.



How does the size of the depth affect my search and the related results?

The depth of the related table search is the number of joins that the database will use to determine the relationship between a set of tables. The results of the query will be based on the tables linked to the ones checked within n joins. ( n being the depth entered ) If the structure of the table relationship is such that a shallow depth produces a relatively large number of tables, the succeeding step in the form builder may take longer than expected.

What are the listing for each of the tables?

Each row of this table represents a specific table or view in the database. The checkbox allows the user to carry the specified table over to the next Form Builder step. The center column is the system name for the table and the far right column represents the system comments for the table. These comments are filled in by the database administrator when the table are created. No comments will be displayed as null.
