The Symbol Properties dialog box displays all variables and their names, values, and formulas in the symbol. Symbol parameters are also defined on this dialog box; these are the symbol properties that are externalized to the Microsoft Excel workbook bulkload file. Symbol parameters are externalized as either standard variables for standard profiles or input variables for custom profiles.

  1. If the Open Symbols toolbar is not already active, click Tools > Add-Ins, and then select the Opening option.

  2. On the Open Symbols toolbar, click Symbol Properties to display the Symbol Properties dialog box.

  3. Select the Parameters tab.

  4. Click each value in the dialog box (the corresponding graphical dimension highlights in the symbol), and type a name in the Symbol Parameter box. Click Apply after entering each parameter.

  5. Click OK when all symbol parameters have been named.

To avoid adding multiple symbol parameters that define the same types of attributes to the catalog, naming conventions should be developed by the reference data designer. The conventions delivered with the base catalog can be viewed on the CustomInterfaces worksheet of the opening workbook. For more information, see Symbol Naming Conventions.
