    ByVal Value As ETableLinkStyle _

ETableLinkStyle get_TableLinkStyle ()

 Property Value

A member of the ETableLinkStyle enumeration.

 Remarks

This property specifies a default value assigned to the LinkStyle property of newly created tables. Possible values are:

• tlsRows - relation ends are the rows of a table. An arrow connected to the table is linked to a particular row. This mode is convenient for database diagrams.
• tlsTable - relations target the table as a whole entity, and not any particular row. This mode is convenient for class diagrams.
• tlsBoth - a mixed mode where arrows can target either a row of the table or the table itself.

Programmatically, arrows can be linked to a table in any way, regardless of tables' LinkStyle. LinkStyle value is considered only when end-users draw arrows to or from a table. To link to a table as an entity and not to a specific row, pass -1 as row argument of the CreateLink or CreateRelation methods.
