Defining
Field Attributes Screen 2
| 4. |
Now we see the Check Box Edit screen with the second field, "Employee Number" displayed. (No field size is specified for the first field, "EMPLOYEE RECORD. " It is simply an
identifying tag, not a field, and would have a Field Number of zero.)
The Check Box Edit screen lists field
attributes and field edit options. You can specify as many as 51 field
attributes and field edit options for each field in your record format.
These Check Box Edits are divided into
three groups:
- Field Dictionary Edits
- Local Field Edits
- In-Out Field Edits
