public static function IsBuiltInColumn(

Return Value

Remarks

Used to determine if a column is marked as a built in the CatalogRelationships database column.

This method does not report a built in column at the catalog system level.

For example;

CatalogRelationshipsDataSetSchema.IsBuiltInColumn("DisplayName") will return true since "DisplayName" is a built in property in the CatalogRelationshipsDataSet.

However, CatalogPropertiesDataSetSchema.IsBuiltInColumn("DisplayName ") will return false since "DisplayName " is not a build in property in the CatalogPropertiesDataSet.

The following catalog database columns in the CatalogRelationships table are marked built in:

  • DisplayName

  • ListPrice

  • Rank

  • RelationshipDescription

  • RelationshipName

  • TargetCatalogName

  • TargetCategoryName

  • TargetProductId
