If you imported Adabas keys into an Adabas data map, you can define a key for each table in the data map.
To add a key to a table in an Adabas data map:
Open the data map.
On the
Data Map
tab in the
Resource Explorer
, right-click the table and click
Properties
.
On the
Table Properties
dialog box, click the
Keys
tab.
In the
Primary Key
list, select a key for the table.
The selected key appears in the
Key Details
list.
The validity of a key is determined by checking that the table contains all the fields that are defined in the record as having the Adabas field names needed by the descriptor. If any of these fields are mapped into groups, all members of the group must be present. Fields in vertical arrays are not valid.
