TableRows

R

This gives access to the rows/column count for the table being referenced by the overall attribute reference.

The advantage is that they can be used directly in a row or column index without having to use a separate temporary attribute and a separate routine line to set it.

These attributes can determine a table from:

• direct references within an attref;
• dynamic table references;
• item table references (if item is available);
• implied
  eg: a sort column attref in a sort knows the target table even though that table hasn't been directly specified in that attref

TableColumns

R

As above.
