Creating a lookup
field
You can create a lookup field mapping by referencing within a local
database form a column within a view of the lookup database. In Pylon
Pro, this field is called a lookup field. It is created when you add a
specific type of Dialog list field to a Lotus Notes design. In the example
above, idnumber is the lookup field.
Creating a lookup field mapping
To create a lookup field mapping:
1. Create a new field in a form and set the field Type to Dialog list.
2. In the Field designer, click the Control tab.
