    public class FieldPart
    extends AbstractValueElement
    This class provides an object commonly known as a FieldElement, i.e. with a DatabaseField or a SummaryField. The difference is the location of the element. FieldElements are located in a section directly, FieldPart elements are located in a Text, more exact in a Paragraph.
    For each set of the database table it will be evaluated and assigned with the value in the database or the value of a expression depending on the kind of the field. Note that it is not possible to instanciate this class direcly. Use the Paragraph.addFieldPart(Field) method in class Paragraph instead.
    Note that the properties for number and currency format does not take effect when the property 'use system default format' is set. Changes at properties for date/time/datetime does not take effect when the property 'date windows default type' is set to a short or long default format.

    This class is part of the RDC.
