In the case of a first level support, this field is used to specify the field in the linked table that contains the value corresponding to the primary key in the target. The user can select this field from the list of fields that compose the linked table.
For example, in the case of an association of the Appointments table (BAPPOINT) with the BP target, the field containing the name of the visited BP is APTCMP. Thus, it is this field that must be entered in the "Key" column.
In the case of grouping support, this field is used to specify the field in the new table included that contains the value corresponding to the equivalent field in the parent table. The user can select this field from the list of fields that compose the table.
