Var

MB: IMetabase;

NSI: IRdsDatabase;

NSIInst: IRdsDatabaseInstance;

Folders: IRdsAttributeTypeFolders;

Folder: IRdsAttributeTypeFolder;

Type: IRdsAttributeType;

Begin

MB := MetabaseClass.Active;

NSI := MB.ItemById("NSI_1").Edit As IRdsDatabase;

NSIInst := NSI.Open(Null);

Folders := NSIInst.AttributeTypes.Folders;

Folders.Clear;

Folder := Folders.Add(New folder);

Type := Folder.Types.Add;

Type.DataType := DbDataType.DateTime;

Type.Id := "DateType";

Type.Name := Time;

NSIInst.Save;

(NSI As IMetabaseObject).Save;

End Sub Main;
