Chapter 9 PGL Commands
Dynamic Incremented Alphanumeric Strings
This command creates a window on the form in which a Dynamic
Incremented Alphanumeric String will later be entered in the EXECUTE
mode. The window is assigned a number (IAFn) that will be used in
EXECUTE mode to identify in which window the string will print. To create a
window on a form, use the following basic command when creating a form:
This command is identical to the Static/Dynamic Alphanumeric string
command except for the following parameters.
Form Length Commands (Create)
When you originally set up your form, one of the optional parameters sets the
form length in dot rows. Using the following commands you can change the
Form Length to a specific number of lines:
NOTE: Each command specifies an LPI as well as a Form Length. However,
these commands do not change the LPI. They simply specify a form
length in lines measured in different dot row heights. The LFORM6
command sets form length in lines measured in 12 dot rows and
LFORM8 sets from length in lines measured in 9 dot rows.
