PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 6.0 | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: February 1, 1999

This technical note explores how to use resources stored in the structure to create missing default records in a new database structure. In addition, this technical note illustrates how to put a user's serial number or other information into a structure in a way that enables that information to also be placed into every new data file that the user creates. This technique could be used as a simple
