"Braille Prefix?"
If you are using literary Braille, you can choose between Capital Sign, Double Capital Sign, Auto
Number Sign and None.
"Field Context?"
This option is used for many different purposes, including controlling how the contents of the field
will be displayed.
Fields usually contain fragments of text that by themselves, do not denote context. For instance, in
some cases the pronunciation that is used is dependent on the context. For example, "Dr" in a
"Title" field is "Doctor", but in an "Address" field, is most commonly the abbreviation for "Drive".
The options for Field Context are as follows:
General (the default)
Spell
Name
Address
Town or City
State
Country
Organization
Password
Email address
Phone number
"Maximum Length?"
The default maximum length is 255. Numbers between 1 and 255 can be entered. If you need longer
fields, use a Document field-type. Usually you would leave this set to 255. However, if you will be
using the database in a situation where you are printing on pre-printed forms, for example, where
there is a specific limit on the length of a field, then set this appropriately to ensure that your entry
will fit in the pre-printed space.
