Numerical Metadata


The next options are for numerical metadata. Excel users will see the similarity here, as in Excel you can define the contents of cells to be numerical as well. These options are also available from the Add Column page (referenced as fldNew.aspx in the URL) shown in Figure 9.4.

  • Number You can set the number of decimal places as well as set a minimum and maximum value for this field. If, for example, the field is for a rating system entry, you might limit the minimum value to 1 and the maximum value to 10. You can also perform calculations in this field, which is a more advanced process and won't be covered in this book.

  • Currency As with the Number field, you can choose the number of decimal places as well as provide minimum and maximum values. You can also pick the currency format, such as United States, Japan, or United Kingdom.
