Some types of data tables are for run-time validation; specifically,
to hold data for comparison against form input. (You relate the data
table to the input field when you declare the form part.) Three types
of validation data tables are available:
- matchValidTable
- The user's input must match a value in the first data-table
column.
- matchInvalidTable
- The user's input must be different from any value in the first
data-table column.
- rangeChkTable
- The user's input must match a value that is between the values in the
first and second column of at least one data-table row. (The range is
inclusive; the user's input is valid if it matches a value in the
first or second column of any row.)
The other types of data tables are as follows:
- msgTable
- Contains run-time messages.
- basicTable
- Contains other information that is used in the program logic; for
example, a list of countries and related codes.
