Locating the Referenced Object

Locating the Referenced Object

Each shortcut tracks the location of the object it references and displays it in the transformation property sheet. The shortcut object displays the following details about the referenced object:
  • Repository name
  • Folder name
  • Table or transformation name
The following figure shows the referenced shortcut objects:
On the Table tab in the Edit Tables dialog box, the Select Table options shows the shortcut FlatFile:Shortcut_to_shirt_items. The Shortcut To area has the following values: Repository = HR_70; Folder = Orders; and, Table = shirt_items (FlatFile).
The original object location displays in the Shortcut To area.
If you move or delete an object referenced by a shortcut, the shortcut becomes invalid.
