For example, a Dutch zip-code has a format of 4 numbers and 2 uppercase alphabetic characters. Creating a string-preset named "Dutch Zip-code" and type "Masked values" with a value of "NNNN[ ]AA", I could be selecting this preset very easily whenever I need to generate a Dutch zip-code value.
Presets are datatype specific. The following datatypes and types of data are supported:

For a "string" datatype, the "Random" section is different, as the following different random strings can be generated:
| · | Random values (length n to m)
|
| · | Globally Unique Identifier (GUID)
|
| · | URLs
|
| · | E-mail addresses
|
| · | Address (streetname + number)
|
| · | Full names (first name + last name)
|
| · | Masked values
|
