generateDataFields

This procedure creates DataField records for a table. This procedure creates a SmartDataField for each field in the table.

You can pass in a list of tables for which to generate fields. This means that you can exclude certain tables, instead of having to specify all tables. For example, if all tables except one are to be generated, a string like “!SomeTable,*” can be passed into the procedure.
