FORMS DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE

x

Coordinate of the origin on the x axis of the section in relation to the origin of the form.

Default None.

Considerations SECTION can also be used to define an entire form as a section. Within the section, any other command, statement, or specification may be used except another SECTION command, DO SECTION command, FORM command, or END command. More than one section may be defined and invoked, but each section must be terminated with the END SECTION command before another section can be defined.

To invoke a section that has been defined, invoke the section with the DO SECTION command. A section must be defined before it can be invoked.

Example Figure 2-7 illustrates how the SECTION commands are invoked.
