Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.x
SYMPTOM(s):
OpenEdge does not support the Erwin character .df format
** Error during ADD FIELD cField **
Unknown data type in field definition.
Loading a .df file with a field definition like:
ADD FIELD "cField" OF "testtab" AS char
fails in OpenEdge. With 9.1x the load works as expected.
Erwin generates .df files with character field definitions defined as CHAR not CHARACTER.
CAUSE:
This is a known issue being investigated by Development
FIX:
A work around is to replace the string "CHAR" in the .df file with "CHARACTER".
