Option 4 (Copy Data)
You can create a field that uses data from another field. This is
useful for creating merged fields or sub-fields. You can copy the
information from multiple fields into one field by applying the copy
procedure more than once. Copy data is the only option you can
apply to a field more than once.
The maximum number of characters defined in box T3 or B3 must
allow for the number of characters you will place in the field,
including any price, check digit, or fixed characters inserted by
the printer. The maximum number of characters in the destination
field (including copied data) cannot exceed 2710 or the maximum
number of characters permitted by the bar code.
When copying from more than one field, copy
into the destination field from left to right.
