button to the right of the Default Value field to access a
list of default system values.
See the section entitled “Default values” for a complete description on how

6. Enter the
Minimum Length
of the index field. If the index field is
mandatory, then Minimum Length should be greater than 0 (zero).
7. Enter the
Input Mask
of the index field. The input mask defines the syntax
or audit rules required for the field.
See the section entitled “Mask syntax” for mask values and examples.
NOTE: Minimum Length and Input Mask are used together to determine what
can be entered for an index field. For example, a Minimum Length of
“4” and an Input Mask of “X(9)” means that the index field must contain
between four (4) and nine (9) alphanumeric characters.
8. Enter the
Output Mask
of the index field.
The output mask defines the output format of the field. This is primarily
useful for formatting date fields or fields that have delimiter requirements;
such as, social security or telephone numbers. For example, for a date
field in month, day, year format:
Input mask
MMDDYY
Output mask
MM”/”DD”/”YY
NOTE: In this version of Capture Software, defining an output mask is
available only for Date/Time fields.
