You can apply more than one option to most fields. For
example, you can format a field as a price, then define a
prompt for the field.
Also, you cannot use certain options together on a field. For
example, you cannot
increment
a
price
field. These limitations
will be noted with each option.
NOTE: Due to more rigid syntax checks, be aware that data
streams that run successfully with older versions of
the software may now produce errors on the field
options.
