RIMMF ID columns To create a self-referencing trees structure (like RIMMF) two id columns are needed: * a Parent ID * a Row ID Row IDs are simple sequential numbers. The Parent ID is what connects a row to another row in a Parent/Child relationship, thus making the tree visualization possible.

RIMMF Column: RDA Element The 'RDA Element' columns contain the names or captions (or labels, or field names, etc.) for each row. Since some of these element names can be very long, there are two versions: a complete element name, and a brief element name.
