¹Skipping past the overflow line to any line on the same page sets t indicator on.

¹Skipping past the overflow line to any line on the new page does not overflow indicator on unless a skip-to is specified past the specif line.

For

conditioning

an

overflow

line,

an

overflow

indicator

can

appear

in

AND

or

an

OR

relationship.

For

an

AND

relationship,

the

overflow

indica

must appear on the main specification line for that

line

to

be

cons

overflow line. For an OR relationship, the overflow indicator

can

be

either

the

main specification

line

or

the

OR

line.

Only

one overflow

be

associated with one group of

output

indicators.

For

for

the

of

line.

¹ When the overflow indicator is used

in

an

AND

relationship with

a

r

fying indicator, unusual results are

often

obtained

because

the

re

might not be the one read

when

overflow

occurred.

Therefore,

the

fying indicator is not on, and all lines conditioned by both overflow

identifying

indicators do

not

print.

¹ An overflow indicator conditions an
