attribute type 10013

[ujjval090683]

How can I create attribute type 10013, which is basically a data source. It gives Text both and next to that there is button. When I click on that button it pop-up new windows and gives me list of options (fetched this lsit from data base) and I can select any of that.

Below is the defination of that attribute:

Vendor : A<1,?,Required=false,DisplayName=Vendor,customSQL=false,ValidKeyAttr={},ValidValues={select distinct Vendor from File_Data order by Vendor},Type=10013,NumRows=1,ID=6,ValidField=Vendor,RegionName=Attr_4609_6,MaxRows=1,ValidKeyField={},ValidTable=File_Data,ValidKeyValue={},Search=true,FixedRows=true>

this sounds like a table key lookup attribute, you should be able to create them from the Attributes page, or are you trying to programatically create them ?

I wanted to create it from Livelink UI itself. But while adding attribute to the category, I can not see any option to add a attribute whose values can be referred from Database. Pop-up attribute is there, but it kind of combo box. I am not talking about that.

Do you have the module installed where you want that attribute type

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?

As Greg says, 10013 is a Table Key Lookup which is available if you install the "Attribute Extension" optional module. In fact, that's more or less all that module does - adds the TKL attribute type.

If the attribute was created and the module was uninstalled, or you are pointing vanilla LL to an old system, you may see the extended definition information for that kind of attribute still stored in your system. Unfortunately, you will have lost the ability to render it in a category at runtime, add a new one to a category definition, or change it in an existing definition. And TKL is a bit of a beast to fake a basic custom implementation.
