Type Constrained drop list Can be Data, Dual or Maintenance. Maintenance is a table that is a dedicated source for selectable list values. For example, the table tbl_static_lists is defined as Maintenance, as all the drop lists in the Generator App use it as the list source. Dual is a transaction table that serves as the source for a selectable list value. If a list is based on a table and the table is not set to type Dual or Maintenance, the dependent lists are not refreshed when the underlying table data changes.
Sub Type Alphanumeric, lower case, underscore An optional parameter which is usefull for special handling by customisations.

Row Seal Active Constrained drop list Generate the forms to provide the row lock feature, which will present a lock icon on a record display or show form. Clicking the lock icon will prevent further edits to the row data, and is permanent. This feature is similar to the Field property "Lock On Edit", except that all the row fields are locked, and the user will determine when the record is to be locked.

Permit Attachments Constrained drop list Permit the user to attach any file to the record.
Has Insert Form Constrained drop list Generate a form for the servlet to present row capture on the table

The purpose of this feature is to speed up data capture on forms where most fields are the same, and only a few are different between records.

Has Search Form Constrained drop list Generate a form for the servlet to present a search form based on the underlying data table
