Options

 

formname

Names an existing form to modify. The form name is limited to 128 characters.

 

MODAL

Launches a form in the designer from a command block, command file, or EEP. The Form Designer must be closed in order to continue to the next command.

 

tblview

This option is for R:BASE for DOS only, when you are creating a new form. This option is available only if you start to build a form from the R> Prompt with a database open. Specify both formname and tblview when you want to build a new form. R:BASE displays the Form Designer screen where you can begin to define the new form.
