SmartDataField Module
The SmartDataField gives you a method to customize how particular pieces of data are displayed. You might use the SmartDataField as a calculator to update an integer field, or as an editor with cut, copy, and paste buttons to update a character field. In this module, a SmartDataField displays a date field as a calendar. Choosing a new date in the calendar changes the value in the field.
Choose the SmartDataField button on the SportsPro main window to launch this module:

SmartDataFields work with SmartDataViewers. You create a master for the SmartDataField that you want to use. Then you drop an instance of it onto an appropriate field in a SmartDataViewer to create the necessary links.
Table 2–8 describes the major objects used in the SmartDataField module.
For more information on SmartDataFields, see the chapter on SmartObjects in the Progress ADM 2 Guide .
