<h1 class="topictitle1">Conditioning for display files (positions 7 through 16)</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>Positions 7 through 16 are a multiple-field area in which you can
|
||
|
specify option indicators.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Option indicators are 2-digit numbers from 01 to 99. Your program can set
|
||
|
option indicators on (hex F1) or off (hex F0) to select a field or keyword.
|
||
|
You can use option indicators to select fields to display different data on
|
||
|
different output operations instead of defining a different record format
|
||
|
for each combination of fields.</p>
|
||
|
<p>A condition is a grouping by AND of two through nine
|
||
|
indicators that must all be in effect before the field or keyword is selected. An
|
||
|
AND condition is set off if N is specified and it is set on if N
|
||
|
is not specified. You can specify a maximum of nine indicators for each condition
|
||
|
and nine conditions for each field or keyword. Therefore, a maximum of 81
|
||
|
indicators can be specified for each field or keyword. An AND condition occurs
|
||
|
when you specify a condition requiring that more than one indicator must be
|
||
|
on or off before the condition is satisfied. The first indicator you specify,
|
||
|
AND the second, AND the third, and so on, must all be in effect before the
|
||
|
condition is satisfied and the field or the keyword is selected. You must
|
||
|
specify the field or the keyword on the same line as the last (or only) set
|
||
|
of indicators specified.</p>
|
||
|
<div class="p">You can also specify several conditions for a field or
|
||
|
keyword so that if any one of them is satisfied, the field or the keyword
|
||
|
is selected. This is called an OR relationship. In an OR relationship, if
|
||
|
the first condition is satisfied, OR the second condition, OR the third condition,
|
||
|
and so on, the field or the keyword is selected. Conditions within the OR
|
||
|
relationship can consist of just one indicator or can consist of several indicators
|
||
|
grouped together by AND. Indicators can be grouped by AND to form a condition.
|
||
|
Conditions can be grouped by OR to give your program several ways to select
|
||
|
the field or keyword. <dl><dt class="dlterm">Position 7 (AND)</dt>
|
||
|
<dd>If you need more than three indicators to form an AND
|
||
|
condition, specify the indicators on the next line or lines. You can specify
|
||
|
an A in position 7 on the second or following lines to continue the AND condition,
|
||
|
or you can leave it blank because A is the default.</dd>
|
||
|
<dt class="dlterm"> Position 7 (OR)</dt>
|
||
|
<dd>If you specify several conditions that are to be grouped
|
||
|
by OR, each condition must start on a new line and each condition, except
|
||
|
the first, must have an O in position 7. An O specified for the first condition
|
||
|
produces a warning message, and that position is assumed to be blank.</dd>
|
||
|
<dt class="dlterm">Position 8, 11, 14 (NOT)</dt>
|
||
|
<dd>If you want an indicator to be off instead of on to satisfy a condition,
|
||
|
specify an N in the position just preceding the indicator (position 8, 11,
|
||
|
or 14).</dd>
