62// <synopsis>
63// This class provides lookup and indexing into an MS OBSERVATION
64// subtable. These services include returning rows numbers (which
65// for the OBSERVATION subtable are OBSERVATION_ID's) associated
66// with specific data in the subtable.

72// <motivation>
73// Collect together all subtable indexing and lookup for the
74// OBSERVATION subtable, for encapsulation and efficiency.
