Specifying Conversions

Restriction: This topic applies only when the AppMaster Builder AddPack has been installed, and applies only to Windows platforms.

Syntax:

(input1,
		  input2, ..., inputN,
		  I=internalval,
		  O=outputval)

General Rules:

Follow these rules when you specify conversions:

  1. Separate each entry with a comma
  2. Code the internal storage conversion format in internalvalue
  3. Code the output display in outputvalue
  4. Ensure that the internalvalue and outputvalue are valid input data

Example:

The entry:

(ja, jan, i=1, o=January)

Means the end user can enter ja or jan. AMB converts and stores the ja or jan as 1. AMB displays the output as:

January
