DXL create in-link, out-link columns

I'm trying to use DXL to create views.  I can successfully create attribute columns.  I'd like to also auto-create columns showing the text fields for any in and out links (right/left arrows on main column) associated with the rows.

 

Any pointers?  I've looked at the DXL code the wizard creates to display a link column but how do I associate that with code with a column?

 

Thanks,

Steve

From the DXL manual:

 

dxl(set)
Declaration
void dxl(Column c,
string dxlCode)
Operation
Sets the DXL code to use in a DXL column. This is equivalent to the menu option Column > Edit > dxl.
If you wish to use a Windows-style file separator (\), you must duplicate it (\\) so that DXL does not interpret it as a meta
character in the string. Because Rational DOORS automatically converts UNIX-style file separators (/) for Windows, it is
usually more convenient to use them.
Example
dxl(column 0, "display obj.\"Object Heading\"")
dxl(column 1, "#include <layout/trace.dxl>")
