what are these variables in links.def for?
This may sound like another "how do I add fields" question, but it isn't (exactly).

Suppose I wanted to have something like a yellow pages)no URLs. When changing your links.def for defining your links database, first modify the hash:

%db_def = (
ID => [0,...
comany_name => [1,...
company_adr => [2,...

Then below assign the variables:

# Field Number of some important fields. The number is from %db_def above
# where the first field equals 0.
$db_company_name = 1;
$db_company_adr = 2;

Now if I changed it to these vailues, I'm looking at a whole lot of customizing on my various programs add, modify, etc?? Right?


thanks..
