Record

The record includes the form header that defines form parameters and size, and the form data string.

ID Length = Two digit number (01 through 99) that defines the length of the form ID.

Form ID =String of one to 99 printable characters that identify the form.

CNTL Encoding Character = Indicates the start of control- character encoding. The character is always in the range of 20 through 7E hex, and is followed by a two-digit hexadecimal number equivalent to the ASCII value of the control character to be encoded. When a control character is required within the form data, the control character must be entered in its hexadecimal format and preceded by the CNTL encoding character.

Form Data Switch Character = Designates the insertion of the form’s fill-in data. The character is always in the range from 20 through 7E hex. The form-data switch character must be different from the control-character encoding character. The form data switch character is not printable within the form and should not be used in any control sequence in the form.

Form Length = A five-digit number, 00001 through 65,535, that defines the length of the string that follows. The string count includes all characters other than uncoded control characters 0 through 1F hex.

Form Data String = Form data is a string of text and command sequences with encoded control characters. Terminate the string with a ST (ESC \ or decimal 156) command.
