Problem

Solutions: You can create a secondary file that contains {INPUT} messages in each field in a record, rather than put the {INPUT} messages in a primary file: Secondary File: 1. Use the {INPUT} command to create the message (Shift-F9,3) 2. Press F9 to get {END FIELD}. 3. Continue inserting the {INPUT}'s and {END FIELD}'s as needed. 4. Use Shift-F9,2 to insert {END RECORD}. Example: {INPUT}Please type the applicant's social security number~{END FIELD} {INPUT}Please type applicant's phone number~{END FIELD} {END RECORD} ========================================================== Primary File: 1. At the positions where the {INPUT} command would usually be placed, insert the appropriate {FIELD} commands. 2. Save, clear the screen, and merge. Example: APPLICANT FORM {FIELD}1~ {FIELD}2~
