When you select a table,
the Binding tab in the Object palette displays several data binding
options. Options that are not specifically related to creating a
data connection apply both to data bound to a data source and data
saved to a file when the object is not bound to a data source.
Name
Sets
the name of the table. If existing tables in the form use the same
name, the number beside the name identifies the instance for the
current table. See
To name and rename objects
.
Data Binding
Sets the default data-binding method:
-
Use name
-
Enables data merging and saving options. Data values are
merged and stored implicitly according to Adobe data-merging rules.
-
Use global data
-
Associates a single data value with all objects that have
the same name (see
To define a global field
).
-
New Data Connection
-
Starts the New Data Connection wizard. To define a connection
using the wizard, see
Create a data connection to an XML schema
or
Create a data connection to an OLE database
.
-
No data binding
-
Disables data binding. Because the object will not capture
or display merged data, any information associated with the object
is not written as output when the form data is saved/submitted.
Repeat Table For Each Data Item
Enables or disables table repetition.
Min Count
Sets the minimum number of occurrences of the currently
selected object to display on the form.
Max
Sets
the maximum number of occurrences of the currently selected object
to display on the form.
Initial Count
Sets the number of occurrences of the currently
selected object to initially display on the form, regardless of
the quantity of data from any data connection. The value you specify
must be equal to or larger than the value for Min Count, and less
than or equal to the value of Max.
