Chapter 5. Defining Field Options
This chapter provides a reference for defining

field options in formats

check digit packets.
Applying Field Options ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Field options further define text, bar code, and non-printable
text fields. The text, constant text, or bar code field must be
previously defined before you can apply any field option to it.
Define options immediately after the field to which they apply.
Combining Field Options
You can use more than one option with most fields. For
example, you can use Option 4 to copy data from another
field, and then use Option 30 to pad the field. When you use
multiple options for the same field, you must place the options
in the order you want to apply them to your format.
