For<br /> consistency with the V-file schema, it may be viewed as the &quot;Attribute<br /> Dictionary&quot; for the Text Integration Utilities.<br /> <br /> It also stores Objects, which can be embedded in a Document Definition&#039;s<br /> Boilerplate Text (Overprint). Objects contain M code which gets a piece of<br /> data and inserts it in the document&#039;s Boilerplate Text when a document is<br /> entered.<br /> <br /> Warning: objects embedded in boilerplate text are looked up by multiple index<br /> (i.e. DIC(0) contains &#039;M&#039;). Current code (see routine CHECK^TIUFLF3) checks<br /> all present indexes to make sure object names, abbreviations and print names<br /> are not ambiguous for this lookup. If new indexes are added, this code MUST BE<br /> UPDATED to check the new index as well.<br /> <br /> Some entries in this file are developed Nationally and exported across the<br /> country. Others are created by local sites. Entries in the first category<br /> are marked National Standard and are not editable by sites.<br /> <br /> This file does NOT allow multiple entries OF THE SAME TYPE with the same name.<br /> That is, within a given Type, there are no duplicate names. (This refers to<br /> the .01 field, the Technical name of the entry.)<br /> <br /> This file does not allow a parent to have items with the same name, even if<br /> the items have different internal file numbers (i.e. are different file<br /> entries). Again, this refers to the .01 Technical name of the entry.<br /> <br /> Because of ownership considerations, the file does NOT allow an entry to be an<br /> item under more than 1 parent. If the same item is desired under more than 1<br /> parent, the item must be copied into a new entry. There is one exception:<br /> Document Definitions of Type Component which have been marked Shared may have<br /> more than one parent.<br /> <br /> The Document Definition Utility TIUF categorizes certain fields as Basic,<br /> Technical, or Upload, and displays these fields together as a group when user<br /> edits or views a Document Definition. BASIC fields include Name, Abbreviation,<br /> Print Name, Type, Personal Owner, Class Owner, Status, In Use, Shared, Orphan,<br /> Has Boiltxt, National Standard, OK to Distribute, and Suppress Visit<br /> Selection. TECHNICAL fields include Entry Action, Exit Action, Edit Template,<br /> Print Method, Print Form Header, Print Form Number, Print Group, Allow Custom<br /> Form Headers, Visit Linkage Method, Validation Method, and Object Method.<br /> UPLOAD fields include Upload Target File, Laygo Allowed, Target Text Field<br /> Subscript, Upload Look-up Method, Upload Post-Filing Code, Upload Filing Error<br /> Code, and multiples Upload Captioned ASCII Header and Upload Delimited ASCII<br /> Header.<br /> <br /> The Document Definition file contains extensive, detailed field descriptions.<br /> Likewise, some protocols (File 101) used in TIU have extensive and careful<br /> descriptions in the Protocol file. Many of these descriptions are used in TIU<br /> for online help. If it becomes necessary for a national programmer to edit<br /> these descriptions, the programmer should check to make sure all online help<br /> is still displayed properly.<br /> <br /> Users are expected to use the Document Definition Utility TIUF to enter, edit,<br /> and delete file entries. In fact, the file prohibits the deletion of entries<br /> through generic Fileman Options. It also prohibits the edit through generic<br /> Fileman of a few critical fields: Type, Status, Shared, and National Standard.<br /> Adding and Deleting (but not editing) Items is also prohibited through generic<br /> Fileman options. Abbreviation and Print Name of OBJECTS cannot be edited<br /> through generic Fileman Options.<br /> <br /> This does NOT imply that it is SAFE to use generic Fileman to edit other<br /> fields. Users are cautioned that edit through generic Fileman bypasses many<br /> safeguards built in to the Document Definition Utility and can create havoc<br /> unless the user THOROUGHLY UNDERSTANDS the File and its uses.<br /> <br /> If users find needs which are not met through TIUF, please communicate them to<br /> the TIU development team.<br /> <br /> *****************<br /> <br /> WARNING: Using generic Fileman options to edit entries can cause SERIOUS<br /> database problems.<br /> <br /> ****************<br /> GLOBAL NAME (c): ^TIU(8925.1, ENTRIES (c): 861<br /> DD ACCESS (c): @ RD ACCESS (c): @<br /> WR ACCESS (c): @ DEL ACCESS (c): @<br /> AUDIT ACCESS (c): @ VERSION (c): 1.1<br /> DISTRIBUTION PACKAGE (c): C9CTIU CONTINUITY OBJECTS<br /> COMPILED CROSS-REFERENCES (c): NO<br /> <br /> &lt;/pre&gt;<br /> <br /> [[category:FILE]]</div>
