Column definitions

Follow these steps to create an ObjectREXX expression that will define columns dynamically from form data in other columns.

  1. Select Form--> Edit.
  2. Click the Columns tab.
  3. Click Add.

    The Column dialog box opens.

  4. Type the name for the new column in the Heading field.
  5. Optional: Provide additional information about the column in the Usage code, Edit code, Indent, Width, Heading Alignment, Sequence, and Data alignment fields.
  6. Enter the ObjectREXX expression in the Definition field.
  7. Optional: Check the Pass nulls check box to pass the definition to ObjectREXX for evaluation when a variable in the definition has a null value.
Note:
ObjectREXX for Windows Version 1.0 or later, must be installed; otherwise, an error message is issued when you display a report containing ObjectREXX expressions.
