USING VPLUS/V AN INTRO. TO FORMS DESIGN Self-Paced Training Guide

USE FULL FIELD EDITS WITH ENTRY 

Action 

To enter data into the edited field, run ENTRY, as shown in Figure 4-12.
When ENTRY asks for the forms file name, enter the existing file name.
Then, when ENTRY requests the batch file name, enter the name of a new
batch file.  Use the name NEWDATA.

ENTRY then displays the first (and only) form in the file ORDFORM1.
Although the form, shown in Figure 4-12, looks identical to the ORDER
form displayed in Section 3, there are now more stringent edits and
custom error messages on six of the fields.
