Syntax

 VIRTUAL METHOD SetType(
	uType AS USUAL,
	 oHL AS HyperLabel
) AS VOID

public virtual void SetType(
	Usual uType,
	[DefaultParameterValueAttribute(null, 0)] HyperLabel oHL
)

uType: Type: Usual
The new data type. It can be specified either as a one-character string or as a constant (See FieldSpec:ValType and FieldSpec:UsualType for valid strings and constants, respectively). If omitted, the current value is not changed.
oHL: Type: HyperLabel
The hyperlabel that contains the new diagnostics for the data type check (caption, description, and help context). If omitted, the current value is not changed.

Remarks

A field specification's data type is typically set during instantiation, and should not normally be changed later.
