When the associated DataType property indicates a class-based object,
DataTypeName returns a class type name, including package, as a CHARACTER
expression. If DataType does not indicate an object,
DataTypeName returns the Unknown value (?).
Data type: CHARACTER
Access: PUBLIC Read-only
Applies to: Progress.Reflect.Parameter class, Progress.Reflect.Variable class
Note: For .NET class types,
DataTypeName returns the class type name used in
the ABL, not the assembly-qualified name.
