Figure 2-4. The Field Attribute Screen
As with the form specifications, default values are assigned to the field attributes when a field is created.
When the field attributes are displayed, the tab key moves the cursor from one attribute to the next. To
change an attribute position, use the tab key to position the cursor at the attribute and type the new value.
When you have set the desired attributes, press f4 to save the new values. To return to the default
attributes, press f6 . When you are done, press f8 to return to the edit menu. Each field attribute is
described below.
Field Name
The Field Name entry contains the name of the field. A field name can be up to six characters, beginning
with a letter or @, $, or #. The remaining characters can be letters, digits, or @, $, or #.
NOTE
If you leave the field name blank, SIGEDITOR creates a name for the field. This name
consists of the letters FLD followed by a number.
Sequence Number
The Sequence Number establishes a relationship between the sequence in which fields appear on the form
and the sequence in which the fields are placed in the RPG program input/output (I/O) buffer. When you
create a form, fields are sequenced according to line and column number. When the form is edited after the
initial design, sequence numbers are assigned to fields according to the order in which they are created,
not according to line and column numbers.
You can change the order of the fields' placement in the buffer by changing the sequence number of each
field. However, when changing the sequence of a form's fields, be aware that previous RPG input and
output specifications for that form no longer apply. I/O specifications must reflect the sequence in which
fields are placed in the buffer. If you change the sequence numbers of a form's fields without generating
