OLink - Link to an ontology field
Code of field: OL (for Ontology Link)
Type of field: link to an ontology field in another table.
Applicable to:
All records linked to multiple target records defined in a table with ontology fields.
Comments:
After defining a complete Ontology structure in a table, like the living organism tree or the geographical tree used in the previous chapters, we may need pointing to that structure from other tables.
For example it may be necessary to point from a fungus strain record to the location on earth of multiple samples of that strain.
In such a case, create an O-Field link to the geographic table.
Like all other links (DNA links, etc.) multiple target records can be chosen, ordered, added or removed.
