DDS Editor Button Tool

DDS Editor Button objects show DDS Data Group Editors.

DDS Button Linked to DDS Data Group Dialog Box

The [DataGroup] property defines the data group name and ordinal, as well as its SiteService and Facility ID.

[DataGroup] Properties

For templated screens, SiteService and Facility ID properties must be blank so that the button inherits the default from TheView. The Ordinal must be wild carded. The wild card is 9999. When the wild card is present, the system resolves the wild card based on the Data Group name and Facility ID properties.
