This window appears when you select Contents List at Another Startpoint from the Basis of New Contents List Menu |
Note |
This window is preceded by a pop-up enquiry window that enables you to select the contents list whose details you want to copy. |
Purpose |
This window enables you to select the rows you want to copy to your new contents list. |
|
The Global records which you can export or import vary from startpoint to startpoint. So the records which can be exported or imported at the startpoint whose contents list you are copying may not match those at the startpoint for the new contents list. |
The prompts on each line are:
Copy row |
The id of the row to be copied. Press <F1> for a pop-up enquiry of the rows in the selected contents list. |
Record |
The id of the Global record the new row is to be based on. Press <F1> for a pop-up enquiry of the Global records available at the new startpoint. |
Note |
This does not automatically default to the record for the row you are copying because it may not be available at the startpoint of the new contents list. Sometimes when the record is not available, some of the same information is available from a different record. |
New row |
The id for the row in the new contents list. This defaults to the id of the copied row. |
Description |
A description of up to 30 characters to enable you to identify the row. |
Seq |
(Display only.) The number displayed here indicates the sequence in which the startpoint processes the Global records. The sequence is fixed for each startpoint and cannot be changed. |
Example |
If you create a row for each of four records which are available at a startpoint, the sequence in which the startpoint processes each row is indicated by a number between 1 and 4. Sequence number 1 is processed before 2, 2 before 3, and so on. |
Constants |
(Y/N.) Enter Y if you want to copy the constants in the selected row as well as the Global data items. Enter N if you do not want to copy them. |
On completion |
Þ Next line in the window. |
Note |
The fields within the Global records which can be exported or imported vary from startpoint to startpoint. So the program only copies columns based on Global fields which can be exported or imported at the startpoint for the contents list you are creating. It does not copy any columns based on Global fields that are not available. |
On exit |
