In Designer mode

Attention! Since during the previous lesson you created a list of users in the configuration when you start Designer you are prompted for a user name. Enter Administrator as the user name because this user has full access to all the configuration objects. There is no need to enter a password because you have not created one.

  2. Set its data type to String with a fixed length of 2 characters.
