Field Header

Syntax​

Field Header        [header_text]

Parameters​

  • header_text: Optional. The custom text to display as the column header for the preceding Field command. If omitted or blank, no header is printed for that column.

Description​

Specifies a custom column header for a database field included in a listing, overriding the field's actual name.

Remarks​

This command must immediately follow the Field command it modifies. If the header text is omitted, it effectively suppresses the header for that column, which is useful when combining fields with Squeeze.

Examples​

To display the FIRST NAME and LAST NAME fields under a single combined "NAME" header:

Field               FIRST NAME
Squeeze
Field Length        9
Field Header        NAME
Field               LAST NAME
Field Length        10
Field Header
