Figure 6-18. TOTALS Form, Record No. 4
TERMINATE AND RESUME ENTRY IN MID-ORDER
Action
After entering the data on the first form of the order number 100002,
press EXIT to terminate ENTRY.
You return to MPE control, as signaled by the colon prompt (:). Now, run
ENTRY again with the same files you specified at the start of this
exercise.
Action
Run ENTRY. Then, when ENTRY asks for the forms file and batch file names,
enter the files you have been using; ORDFORM1 and DATA6.
ENTRY resumes operation where you left off exactly as if you had not
terminated the program. That is, it issues the next sequential form in
Collect mode. Note that the order number and the total net price have
both been saved through the program termination and now are displayed on
the TOTALS form, as shown in Figure 6-18.
Action
Press ENTER to calculate the totals for the order entered in the previous
session.
