A single DDS screen or report usually contains many records. The
CODE Designer allows you to associate all of the records with one screen or
report together as a group. You can then
work with them as a single unit.
To put the records that make up a display into a group, perform the
following steps:
- From the Insert menu, select Group. The Group
properties notebook appears.
- A default name for this group appears in the Group
field.
To change the default name prefix:
- Go to the Styles page.
- Type a new default name in the Default prefix name
field.
- Return to the Basics page.
- From the Available list box, highlight all the records you wish
to add to the group.
- Press Add. The records move over to the
Selected list box and are now part of this group.
- Click on the group tab in the Workbook which corresponds to the name of
the created group. The Design page appears where you can directly
manipulate it using the mouse.
- Fastpath:
- To instantly create a group in the Workbook, highlight a record, right-click
on it, and select Design from the pop-up menu.
