It would be a great help if in another screen, we can create a list of "Field/column Types" with their name, data type, size and picture(mask). i.e., SS#, Address, Phone # and etc.



Then when creating table structure, we would have a drop down for "field type" and we could select/point to any of of those predefined types. It's important that DDT, "Points" to the other lookup table rather copy that into this table. This way, if I want to change my address from 30 Char to 40, I'd change that in field type table and do full rebuild of my BOs and redeploy the files. But at least, I don't have to go to every address and change the size.



What do you think guys?
