Access
To display, create or modify the characteristics of a control break in a report, you must either:
Select the relevant option from the context-sensitive menu in the Input help - Control breaks dialog box of the 4GL Editor.
Click on the relevant button in the dialog box used to work with control breaks in the Question/Answer programming interface.

Data entry
Name
Name of the break.
The system will assign a default name (CTLBRK followed by a number); you can change this name if necessary.
It must be no longer than 15 characters.
This field is protected when in modification mode.
In creation mode this field is compulsory.
Lists
View
This field is used to see the view currently associated with the break.
If you click on the arrow 
button to the right of the field a dialog box will be opened that lets you select a view for the program.
When a new view is set, the view's file will automatically be selected as the break field file, and the file field list will be updated. The file name will be shown in the "File" field.
If any fields were already selected, they will be retained, provided they are present in the new file. If this is not the case, they will be deleted.

This list can contain from 1 to 12 fields, arranged in order of selection.
The order of the fields in the list can be changed.
