{{PrF_UG_TOC_inst}}<div id='prf_ug'>

When an instance is created for a class with a slot of
[[PrF_UG_slots_value_type_symbol|Value Type Symbol]],
the entry field corresponding to the slot is a Symbol entry field.
It takes values from the list of symbols created for the slot.

<ul class='a'>
<li>
[[#Single_Cardinality|single cardinality]]


<li>
[[#Multiple_Cardinality|multiple cardinality]]


<ul>
<li>

<li>
[[#add|adding a value]]


<li>

</ul>
</ul>

=== Single Cardinality ===
