This question belongs on the IB Objects list, really.

GeneratorLinks is a property of your dataset and it is also settable at global level in your connection or database object, meaning you won't have to worry about it in any datasets. Open the property editor for GeneratorLinks and enter

MyColumn=gen_MyGenerator (no spaces, substitute with the column name and its generator)

If setting it at global level, open the same property of the connection/database object and enter

MyTable.MyColumn=gen_MyGenerator

At this level you will also need to set the FieldEntryTypes property (a set) so that it includes fetDomainName.

For more information, see the IBO help text, the online FAQ or post a question to the IBO list.

regards,
Helen
