Remarks

Sets up the default value that will be used when a numeric column is created. Columns can be created during conversion or within a restructure operation.

This default value is copied to the database level when logging in to the database. The actual value in use for an active connection is that on the database level. This attribute merely reflects a default.

    For iCount From 1 To iNumberOfDrivers
        Get_Attribute DF_DRIVER_NAME of iCount To sCurrentDriver
        If (Uppercase(sCurrentDriver) = Uppercase(sDriver)) Begin
