DatabaseExtension

Get the extension of IDEA databases (.IMD or .IDM for ASCII or Unicode databases).

DatabaseExtension is not really required anymore because IDEA can handle database names without extension.

Compatibility

Available as of IDEA version 9.0

Syntax

DatabaseExtension

Remark

DatabaseExtension contains the dot.

Example

Dim SimpleCommands As Object 
Dim extension As String 

Sub Main 
	Set SimpleCommands = SmartContext.MacroCommands.SimpleCommands 

	'Gets the database extension.
	extension = SimpleCommands.DatabaseExtension 
	Set db = Client.OpenDatabase("My database" & extension) 

	'Release object. 
	Set SimpleCommands = Nothing 

End Sub
