In the context of using extensions, what is the Text Ext field used for?

• A. It stores display font style
• B. It specifies the text extension to apply in the column editor
• C. It sets the text encoding
• D. It defines the text alignment

Answer: (B)

The Text Ext field determines which text extension the column editor should use. Extensions add specialized behavior for how text is edited and displayed in a column, so selecting a particular text extension tells the editor to apply that set of rules when handling input, validation, and rendering for that column. This is different from font style (appearance), encoding (character-to-byte mapping), or alignment (layout); those are separate properties. By choosing the text extension, you ensure the column editor uses the intended handling for text in that column.
