Execute Form: Incremental Dynamic Data
Purpose
Incorporates incremental/decremental capability to dynamic alphanumeric
or bar code data supplied as a part of the Execute Form mode.
Mode
NORMAL
NOTE:
In the command below, incremental Execute parameters are shown in
boldface type; standard Execute command parameters are shown in italics.
The general Execute format is shown on page 4–51.
Format
(cc)EXECUTE; formname [;PAGE n] [;FC] [;ICNTn] [;IRSTn]
ICNTn
Identifies the incremental form count to specify the
number of forms to generate with the incremental
fields automatically updated. Enter ICNT and replace
n with a value ranging from 1 to 65,535 to specify the
number of forms.
IRSTn
The optional incremental reset count parameter to
specify the number of forms to generate before
resetting all incremental fields to their starting values.
The reset count parameter is useful in dividing the total
number of forms generated into multiple groups of
identical copies. To use this parameter, enter IRST and
replace n with a value ranging from 1 to 65,535 to
specify the reset count (how many forms generated
before resetting the incremental fields). If the reset
count value is equal to or greater than the incremental
count value, the reset will never occur.
Example
The following forms were generated from ICNT6, IRST2. (To duplicate
incremental fields within a form, refer to page 4–25.)
