Description
This instruction can be used to insert a new record in a pseudo-database, which will feed the report when it is printed. This record is made up of current values taken from the layout fields placed in the main report or in a subreport SubreportName of the main report, if the *SUBREPORT parameter is used.
The layout code is optional. If it is not given, the system will assume that the layout is the one bearing the name of the model.
If the PRINT instruction is issued without the *FORCE option, the instruction loads the layout fields with file fields if the last file read was successful; else the corresponding layout fields are reset to blank or zero.
If the PRINT instruction is issued with the *FORCE option, the instruction always loads the layout fields with file fields.
