Defines named sets. A Named Set is a programming object that identifies the components of a set that is used regularly in an application.  Named sets reduce the amount of code needed to run your application.  For example, if you are creating a database with an Customers Entity, you may want to have a set called “sMyCustomers”.  Find all Customers -> sMyCustomers.  So now that you have an Object called sMyCustomers, you can reference it anywhere if you program by calling the set.  If you add a new Customers record, you will have to add the new record to the set like this:

Find all Customers -> sMyCustomers
Add 1 Customers let Name = ... (include all of your customer fields) -> sAdded
Find sMyCustomers UNION sAdded -> sMyCustomers

This is a fast and simple way of updating the Named Set sMyCustomers without having to query the entire Entity again.

Establishing a Named Set

Call up the Zim IDE, select NAMED SETS from the DataBases menu, and use the tools of the Zim IDE Development to define the desired set.
