Editing a column map procedure in a column map

Use the Lua script editor to edit a column map procedure in a column map.

Editing PST Basic column map procedures

Optim™ Designer does not support editing column map procedures written in PST Basic. Optim Designer supports editing only Lua column map procedures, but you can convert a PST Basic column map procedure to Lua.

When you try to edit a PST Basic column map procedure, Designer will offer the option to convert the procedure to Lua. The conversion process will store a copy of the PST Basic procedure in your workspace and then overwrite the procedure. The old procedure will be stored in the LUAProject directory of the Designer workspace.

To edit a column map procedure in a column map:

  1. Expand a folder in the Directory Explorer that contains the column map, expand the Column Maps node, and double-click the column map. The Column Map Editor opens.
  2. Select the column that is associated with the column map procedure.
  3. Click Edit Procedure. The Lua script editor opens.
  4. Edit and save the procedure.
  5. Save the column map.
