Edit Row

 

Use Setup|Tables|Edit Row to edit row text and/or logic for a selected row on your table.

 

Row text can have up to 480 characters. Each row is a minimum of 10 characters wide and can have up to 50 characters (not exceeding the total 480 characters). Words are automatically wrapped when they're printed on your reports, based on the Row text width set in Setup|Job Settings|Table Presentation (for Plain text reports) or the Row Text Width (in pixels) set in Setup|Banners (for Enhanced text reports).

You can specify where the text will wrap by entering multiple lines in the Row name dialog. Pipe symbols (|) are inserted in the row text of the job file (View|Job File) automatically when multiple lines are entered. Keep in mind that regardless of how many characters you enter on each line, text will wrap based on the row text width. For example, if you enter 50 characters on the first line and 50 characters on the second line and your row text width is set at 40, the text will wrap at 40 characters and then wrap again at the end of the first line, then wrap at 40 characters from the second line and again for the remaining 10 characters of the second line, resulting in 4 lines of row text. Alternatively, you can specify where words should break by inserting a pipe symbol (|) at the point where you want the break to occur.

** WinCross logic using variable names is converted to record/column location when evaluating the length. In most cases the 1024 character logic limit when converted to record/column location will be different than the original number of characters using variables names. If the record/column location conversion results in more than 1024 characters, a syntax error will be issued indicating the logic is more than 1024 characters.
