Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
ADM Reference

> ## RowIdent

> The ROWID, in character format, of the current row of the visualization. If the update-target is an SmartDataObject (SDO), the database ROWIDs can be stored as the second entry of the list. If connected to a SmartBusinessObject (SBO), the value is a semicolon-separated list corresponding to the SBO’s DataObjectNames list. If the SBO is a valid UpdateTarget, then the ROWIDs are for the UpdateTargetNames; otherwise the DataSourceNames.

> Data type: CHARACTER

> Notes:

> - Read and Write.

> - Returns only the ROWIDs that uniquely identify this object’s connection to the dataSource/updateTarget and remove unnecessary ROWIDs so the property can be used directly as input to update methods in the SBO. The assumption is that all tables that are displayed only in the visual object are on the one side of a one-to-many or many-to-one relation of the table that is updated, so that they are uniquely identified through the updatable table and their ROWIDs are not part of this object Ident. However, return more than one ROWID is returned for the case where more than one SDO is updated as one-to-one in the SBO.
