A container is the general term for a Table, a Record, a Field, and a Link.
A container is an element, and is an item that the CommsDat implementation can store in the Comms Database.
A container allows tools and applications and the CommsDat implementation to prepare, store and change the data in the client process. A container acts like a cache of Comms Database information in the client process.
A container derives from [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CommsDat']]]CMDBElement. A container inherits the behaviour of an element and the behaviour that allows it to operate with the Comms Database.
All function calls to a Container perform actions that are local to that Container. Actions can propagate down to other elements in the container.
