Info

Version (Form Compiler) Description Indicates version from which to upgrade. Use in conjunction with upgrade=yes to upgrade from version 2.3 (version=23) or version 2.0 (version=20). To upgrade from version 3.0, specify upgrade=yes and omit the version parameter. Module: Form Default version=30 Version (Form Compiler) examples 524 ifcmp60 module=myform userid=scott/tiger upgrade=yes version=23
Widen_Fields (Form Compiler) Description Use the Widen_Fields option in conjunction with Upgrade. When upgrading to Version 4.5, the bevels on each field can cause the loss of up to one character per field. Specify this option when upgrading to automatically add one character to the Display Width of each field. Note: This has no effect on the maximum allowable data length. This option is most useful for upgrading Form Builder 3.0 character-mode applications with a large number of 1-6 character fields. The effects of the Widen_Fields option will depend on your interface design, and should be tested carefully. Effects can include: • Text items may overlap boilerplate text if space between fields is limited. • If two fields are currently flush against each other, the Widen_Fields option will cause the fields to overlap. Module: Form Default NO Widen_Fields (Form Compiler) examples ifcmp60 module=myform userid=scott/tiger upgrade=yes widen_fields=YES 525
