Using the TENTNO Parameter

Typically you specify an identification text entry according to the instructions for TEXT, TEXTCOL, TEXTLINE, TEXTECOL, TEXTELIN, TEXTOP, TEXTREUS, and TEXTTYPE. TENTNO are used in cases when control at the level of entry numbers is required.

The parameter TENTNO can be used to identify a specific identification text entry that is:

• To be updated (function U)
• To be deleted (function DT)
• To locate where an identification text entry is to be inserted or added (function blank)

The TENTNO parameter is ignored if the data value is zero or blank.

To specify a larger default length (3) for TENTNO, override the field length using the statement.
