Property Value

Type	Description
String	A String value indicating the relationship name represented by the current detail View.

Remarks

A master-detail relationship associates a master table with a detail table using specific fields. To display a master-detail relationship, the grid control creates master and detail Views for the master and detail recordsets respectively. LevelName returns the name of the relationship by which the current detail View is linked to its master View. Refer to the Master-Detail Relationships topic for details.
