The alias is encoded in the field_dispprop record entry for the view – in either the propShort or propLong column depending on the size if the display properties data. Unfortunately it’s not stored in its own field. Find the schemaid (X) and vuiid (Y) for the view you’re interested in and then
SQL> select propshort, proplong from field_dispprop where schemaid=X and vuiid=Y and fielded=0 And you should see something like this; 12\20\4\18\Default Admin View\264\6\0\60019\4\21\ViewWebAlias536870912\201\2\127012\202\2\36600\206\4\17\THIS IS THE ALIAS\207\4\0\\208\4\0\\209\4\0\\5026\4\0\\5027\4\0\\215\40\1\ Mark From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of MCCAVITT Nyall Sent: 23 July 2010 10:31 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: How to obtain the 'Schema-Alias' value for any given Schema ** Hi, I can’t seem to locate the database field that contains the ‘Schema-Alias’ value for a given schema. I know that it is stored in the Alias section of the View Properties of a form. I am selecting a form (schema) from a list (obtained by an SQL query on the arschema table) attached to a field. Once selected I would like to obtain the alias associated with the form. Could someone point me in the right direction please?
