Actually, this is one of the things about Interchange people
don't understand:
There is no ironclad definition. It is flexible.
I know it pains people that they aren't told exactly what to do in every
situation. But Interchange is flexible, not totally structured. There is
no *one and true* database definition.
We don't require that a certain field be a certain type except what you
see there.
I am afraid you will have to live with that.
