Domains


A Domain is a column definition template, global to the database, upon which actual column definitions in tables may be based.

If there are columns in the database table or in several database tables having the same properties, it is useful to describe such column type and its behavior as a domain, and then correspond each of these columns to this domain.

 

Domain Editor allows you to define domain properties. It opens automatically when you create a new domain and is available on editing an existing one.

 

To open a domain in Domain Editor, double-click it in the DB Explorer tree.
