Non-qualified Authoring...

When talking about 'non-qualified authoring' in WebFocus
it's not a term of denigration!  I't is referring to dropping the use
of 'master.segment.fieldname' qualification (default DevStudio
 behavior).  If you want to turn this *OFF* you do this:
  • Click menu Window/Options
  • Chose 'Reporting' tab
  • Click 'unqualified fieldnames' 
...now default behavior of 'master.segment.field' qualification is off...
now you'll get just DN (vs. 'THEDATA.THEDATA.DN')...
