StartWith: IExpression;
The StartWith property returns an object containing condition for the upper level the dictionary block.
Executing the example requires that the repository contains a table dictionary with the TAB_DIM identifier. The dictionary list of attributes contains one additional attribute with the codes of parents. The repository also contains a table with the Tablica_1 identifier. The table has four fields: Id, Name, Ord and Parent_Id.

PrimIndex.Attributes.Add(Dim.Attributes.Id);
DimBlock.Dataset := Dataset;
//Attribute binding
DimBlock.Binding(BlockAttr.Id).AsString := s + "." + DatasetFields.FindById("Id").Id;
DimBlock.Binding(BlockAttr.Name).AsString := s + "." + DatasetFields.FindById("Name").Id;
DimBlock.Binding(BlockAttr.Order).AsString := s + "." + DatasetFields.FindById("Ord").Id;
DimBlock.Binding(BlockAttr.Item(BlockAttr.Count - 1)).AsString := s + "." + DatasetFields.FindById("Parent_Id").Id;
//Upper level
DimBlock.StartWith.AsString := s + "." + Dataset.Fields.FindById("Parent_Id").Id + "=0";
//Connection adjustment is performed by the recursion index
DimBlock.ConnectByIndex := PrimIndex;
DimBlock.ConnectBy(PrimIndex.Attributes.Item(0)).AsString := s + "." + DatasetFields.FindById("Parent_Id").Id;
MObj.Save;
End Sub Main;
After executing the example a new recursive block is created in the dictionary. Block attributes are linked to the fields of data source, as well as the block recursion is adjusted. When a dictionary is created, elements of the upper level are elements with the Parent_Id value, equal to 0.
