Description
Indicates the database table structure for the table that this component represents.
Use TableType to specify the database table structure for a dBASE, Paradox, FoxPro or ASCII table. TableType does not apply to tables for remote SQL servers. TableType can be set to any of the following values:
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
ttDefault |
(Default) Determine table type based on file extension for the table. |
|
ttParadox |
Table is a Paradox table. |
|
ttDBase |
Table is a dBASE table. |
|
ttFoxPro |
Table is a FoxPro table. |
|
ttASCII |
Table is a text file with comma-delimited, quoted strings for each field |
|
DB or none |
Paradox table |
|
DBF |
dBASE table |
|
TXT |
ASCII table |
If TableType is set to ttDefault, the table's file-name extension determines the table type:
| Extension | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
DB or none |
Paradox table |
|
DBF |
dBASE table |
|
TXT |
ASCII table |
If TableType is ttParadox, ttDBase, ttFoxPro or ttASCII, the table type is assumed to be of the type specified, regardless of the table's file name extension.
