If two source drawings have a table with the same name, AutoCAD Map
3D recognizes only the fields defined in the first drawing you activate.
To view Field Definition information for a field, select the field.
Field Definition
Displays the values for the selected field.
Field Name
The name of the field.
Data Type
The type of information that can be entered in the field.
Description
The description assigned to the field.
Default
The default value assigned to the field.
To change any values, click Modify.
New Table
Display the Define Object Data Table dialog box, where you can create a
new table and define new object data fields.
Modify
Display the Modify Object Data Table dialog box, where you can modify
the selected table and define or delete object data fields.
You can modify newly defined tables until you perform a save operation
(either saving objects back to source drawings or saving the current drawing).
Once you perform a save operation, the table can be modified only by a
Superuser. Use the MAPLOGIN command to log in as a Superuser, or contact
your system administrator.
Rename
Display the Rename Table dialog box, where you can enter a new name for
the selected table.
NOTE If you rename a table, be sure to update any queries that call that table.
Delete
Delete the selected table.
NOTE If any data from this table is attached to objects, the data is deleted
from those objects when you remove the table.
