Type Overviews
This appendix contains brief summaries of features of the types supported
by NI Requirements Gateway.
Access
Use the Access type to analyze traceability information specified in tables
of a Microsoft Access database. The default type analyzes the text located
in fields with specific names. You must install Microsoft Access on your
system to use the Access type.
The organization and format of a database table can vary, and does not
always adhere to the format required by the default Access type. You can
customize the definition of the Access type to conform to the data format
that a table contains. Refer to Coupling Microsoft Access with NI
Requirements Gateway for more information about customizing the Access
type. You can open the document by selecting Coupling Access from the
Help menu in Requirements Gateway.
An example table that contains the default requirement traceability
information is shown in Figure A-1.
