Format information can include file attributes in the following categories:
Not all categories are required. Many formats only include major format and file class, or major format only.
The format information has the following structure:
MajorFormat.FileClass.MinorFormat.MajorVersion.MinorVersion
For example:
81.2.0.9.0
Each number in the format information represents a file attribute. The entry 81.2.0.9.0 represents a Lotus 1-2-3 Spreadsheet file version 9.0, where
81= Lotus 1-2-3 Spreadsheet (major format)
2 = Spreadsheet (file class)
0 = not defined (minor format)
9 = 9 (major version)
0 = 0 (minor version)
This example applies to the formats.ini file. When extracting format information using the fpDocInfoFile() or fpDocInfoStream() functions294.2.9.0.
The format values returned from fpDocInfoFile() or fpDocInfoStream()formats.ini because the former defines a unique ID for each major format, while the latter uses a major version, minor version, and minor format to distinguish between formats.
