Entry Terms Registry entry

Specify which columns use the Thesaurus and what their entry terms are.

Description

This entry provides a way of defining the use of a thesaural sub-tree with a column.

Usage

This Registry entry can be assigned to users and groups:

Key	User	User	Group	Group	Group	Group
Key 1	User	User	Group	Group	Group	Group
Key 2	user	user	group	group	Default	Default
Key 3	Table	Table	Table	Table	Table	Table
Key 4	table	Default	table	Default	table	Default
Key 5	Entry Terms
Key 6	column
Value	term:acronym;term:acronym;...

where:

column	is the name of the affected column.
term:acronym;term:acronym;....	is a semicolon separated list of term and acronym pairs (separated by a colon). Each pair defines an entry point into a particular Thesaurus. This means that valid terms for selection from a Thesaurus for the specified column are defined to be the term itself and any term in its sub-tree. If no term:acronym pairs are defined, any term from the Thesaurus is valid for the column.

Note: This Registry entry is required for every column that does not wish to use the entire Thesaurus.

Examples

Key	Setting
