Documentation

Definition

Indicates whether or not the spreadsheet contains a header line.

Use

The header line is the first line of the spreadsheet and contains the technical name in the format [TABLENAME-]FIELDNAME.

The table name is mandatory for the first column only, because all columns in a spreadsheet must belong to the same table. The table name is optional if it can be derived from the spreadsheet name.

If the technical names are unknown, it may contain more descriptive information of the kind of column content. The system subsequently interprets the content of header lines as comments and not as data.
