Forms command strings

BARR/RJE

Follow these guidelines when you enter form command strings:

• Substitute a lowercase n for the RJE printer number. BARR/RJE automatically replaces the n with the actual RJE printer number.

• Use a series of eight lowercase fs to represent the form name. BARR/RJE automatically replaces the ffffffff string with the selected form name.

• If you enter more than one command on line 1 or 2, use a vertical bar (|) to separate the commands.

• Use a ? character in the command to prompt you to enter information later. When a form is mounted, the command displays on the Command line and you are prompted to enter the missing parameters. This is the same feature you can use for commands defined on the Commands tab.

• If you do not use forms control commands, blank out the commands on these lines with the SPACEBAR.
