Elements of a text user interface application

A Text UI application relies on Form parts to define a user interface.
Form parts
Form parts describe a set of fields on a user interface. A Form part can be one of the following two types:
  • A text form defines a layout that is displayed on a 3270 screen or in a command window. Help forms, a subtype of text forms, display help information to explain how the interface works.
  • A print form defines a layout that is sent to a printer.
FormGroup parts
A FormGroup part contains one or more Form parts.
