Change prompt character for a custom table key field

How can I change the prompt character for the key field for my custom table. The only way I know how to change it is to change the segmented key, but since this is a custom table, there is none. Do I have to create one and tie it to my new table? If so, how do I do that? Is there a parameter in the IsKey?

What do you mean by prompt character ? Do you mean configuring the <New> token for your custom table ? - Simon ML

You want to look into InputMask and DisplayMask attribute property.

[PXDBString(10, IsUnicode = true, IsKey = true, InputMask = ">aaaaaaaaaa")]

Example of use: InputMask = ">LLLLL" InputMask = ">aaaaaaaaaa" InputMask = ">CC.00.00.00"
