Example

In this example, for a given function, the PAR and DB1 contexts contain slightly different groups of fields as listed in the following table:

All of the fields in the PAR context could be initialized by a single statement. This is done by inserting a *MOVE ALL function with the following parameters on the Edit Action - Function Details window:

In other words:

.--
: PAR = DB1, CON By name                    <<<
’--

This is equivalent to:

> USER: Process DBF record
:--
:PAR. Customer code = DB1.Customer code     <<<
:PAR. Customer name = DB1.Customer name     <<<
:PAR. Start date = DB1.Start date           <<<
:PAR.Credit limit = CON.*ZERO               <<<
:PAR. Customer group = CON.*BLANK           <<<
’--
