The Domain Editor

The Domain Editor lists all the domains for the data model. You can arrange them hierarchically or alphabetically. The Model Explorer and the Domain Editor list the same domains and lets you sort the domains in hierarchical or alphabetic order. You can create and modify both physical and logical domains using the Domain Editor.

Domain Editor

The tabs and options in the editor change depending on whether the model is logical, physical, or logical/physical.

Domains include the following properties:

  • Domain name and column name
  • Column data type, permission, default value, and valid value
  • Domain comment or note and column comment or name
  • User-defined property
  • User notes

Note: You cannot change the properties of the standard domains (<default>, Blob, Datetime, Number, and String).
