Use the RBLABELS command to launch the Label Designer to create and edit labels.

 

RBLABELS

 

Options

 

labelname

Specifies the name of an existing label to modify.

 

MODAL

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

 

tblview

This option is for DOS only; names the first table or view that a label serves. Use this option when you are creating a new label. This option is available only if you start to build a label from the R> Prompt with a database open. Specify both labelname and tblview when you want to build a new label. R:BASE displays the Label Designer screen, where you can begin to define the new label. Use labelname alone to specify the name of an existing label you want to modify.
