errorf (not supported in Axiell Collections)

Syntax

ERRORF tag[occ]

Meaning

The entry field for tag[occ] will start blinking (under DOS) at the next REDISPLAY. Adlib will place the cursor in the specified occurrence of the field (under Windows and DOS); an occurrence number is mandatory. Under Windows, a REDISPLAY is not required to put the cursor in the specified field occurrence.  For tag, you fill in the (tag)name of the database variable. For occ (occurrence), you enter the number of the iteration. If [occ] is not included, all occurrences of the field will blink (under DOS).

Note that the field tag[occ] must be present on the current detailed display screen tab when the adapl is being executed. Adlib will not switch tabs if the field is on another tab than the active one.
