English Data Values Dialog Box

Use this dialog box to specify English data values.

When the adjectives or subset words used to describe a relationship are defined in an entity, you can specify that they be found either in a database field or in a specified set of word-value pairs. For example, a lookup table can contain gender codes and the values they represent, M for Male and F for Female.
