Short Reference

Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54

Syntax


SELECTION-SCREEN ULINE [[/]pos|POS_LOW|POS_HIGH] 

                 
    [MODIF ID modid] 

              
        [ldb_additions].

Addition

... [/]pos|POS_LOW|POS_HIGH

Effect

This statement creates a horizontal line on the current selection screen. If you do not make a formatting specification [/]pos|POS_LOW|POS_HIGH, the system creates a new line across the width of the selection screen beneath the lines already filled. The maximum length of this line is 83. The MODIF ID addition assigns the line to the modification group modid.

The additions ldb_additions can only be used in a selection include for a logical database.

Addition

... [/]pos|POS_LOW|POS_HIGH

Effect

This formatting specification is used to position the line on the selection screen. len specifies the length of the line. The other specification describes the column from which it is drawn. If several elements are displayed in one line, you can omit this specification and the line will be drawn starting from the current item. If an oblique symbol (/) is entered, you must specify a length and the system draws the line on a new row; otherwise, it is drawn on the current row. If several elements are displayed in a line, you can omit the oblique (/). If there are conflicts with existing screen elements, the system will be unable to generate the selection screen.

You must specify the length len directly as a positive number with a maximum of two digits. If a line is too long, it will be cut off outside blocks with frames at position 83 and at the right edge of the block inside a block with a frame. You can either specify a number pos between 1 and 83 , POS_LOW or POS_HIGH. POS_LOW specifies the position in which the input field for a parameter or the first input field for a selection criterion is to be displayed.POS_HIGH specifies the position in which the second input field for a selection criterion is to be displayed. If the statement is part of a block with a frame, the system interprets a number specified for pos to determine the position of the frame.
