A method and system for creating a name structure is provided. According to at least one embodiment, the method includes, for each data type of a plurality of data types, receiving an indication of a desired ordinal value of the data type and receiving an indication of a desired character length to associate with the data type. Based on the desired ordinal value and the desired character length of each data type of the plurality of data types, the method includes constructing a field structure that comprises a plurality of fields. Each field of the plurality of fields represents a unique data type of the plurality of data types and each field of the plurality of fields has a character length equal to the desired character length of the data type the given field represents. Additionally, each field of the plurality of fields is positioned in the field structure according to the desired ordinal value of the data type the given field represents. |
