DataView, Version 3.0, does not create field selection tools when the mask is created, but only when they are required by the user. If the field selection tool has not been created yet, the function dal_mas_ret_dal_men_fld delivers the return code 0. You can use the function dal_mas_ret_mds_fld to determine, whether any selection tool has been defined for the field.
