CME command: points to note

The CME LINE and POSITION parameters are order dependent; that is, LINE must always precede POSITION.

Data lines: The position of the line is altered to accommodate the line with a larger font.

Multiple copies: If a multicopy report is aborted before all the pages are processed, one copy is printed if the CMEs are copy sensitive. Otherwise, all copies of the setup pages are printed.

CMEs are not applied if OVERPRINT=MERGE and FONTINDEX are both specified.

If an indefinite range is specified (for example, 10 ), CMEs are applied only up until the last print line for the page.

If a definite range is specified (such as 10, 15), CMEs are applied regardless of whether or not variable data appears on those lines.

Multiple lines and columns: You may specify multiple lines and multiple columns for each line.

Multiple line specifications must be given in ascending (top to bottom of page) order.

Multiple column specifications for a line range must be given in ascending (left to right) order.
