Can you set a restraint where only characters equal to blank or greater
than 'Z' are allowed '9'?

I have a DDS PF that is keyed on a character field that contains only

being the parent.

Changing either of the PF's is not an option. I'm wondering about

creating a derived field in the DDS PF, but I'm not sure if that's even
possible. Any thoughts?

Thanks
