Merging Fields
You can copy data to merge the contents of fields. Use the copy data option
as many times as necessary to copy all the appropriate fields into the
merged field.
In the following example, two text and two non-printable fields are shown.
Data from these fields is merged to form field 5, and is then printed as a bar
code.
Field Data Field Type
1 203 Non-printable
2 339 Non-printable
38 Text
4 BLUE Text
5 2033398BLUE Bar Code
To create this sequence:
1. Define fields 1, 2, 3, and 4.
2. Define field 5 as a bar code. Allow enough characters in the bar code
field to hold all the copied characters.
3. Apply Option 4 to field 5 once for every source field.
Sub-Fields
You can copy a segment of data from one field into a new location, called a
sub-field. For example, extract part of the data in a bar code and display it
in text form in a sub-field. Then, use the copy data option.
