dbc_BeforeCreateTable Event

PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeCreateTable
LPARAMETERS cTableName, cLongTableName

Parameters

  • cTableName
    Specifies the name of the table being created.
  • cLongTableName

This event does not occur when you create a free table.

PROCEDURE dbc_BeforeCreateTable ;
         (cTableName, ;
          cLongTableName)
? '     cTableName     = ' + TRANSFORM(cTableName)     + ' - ' ;
                       + TYPE('cTableName ')
? '     cLongTableName = ' + TRANSFORM(cLongTableName) + ' - ' ;
                       + TYPE('cLongTableName ')+' /end/ '
ENDPROC
