STOP
STOP
Used to stop processing the current phase of the current form.
Syntax
[STOP]
Discussion
When STOP is executed, no further processing is performed on the current field, or on any
subsequent fields in the form in this phase.
Example
For example, if using ENTRY, processing of the entire forms file could be terminated when
"END" is entered in the current field with the following specification:
IF EQ "END" THEN
CHANGE NFORM TO $END;STOP These statements terminate execution
of the forms file in "END" is the
value of the current field.
The STOP command ends processing of this form; using the $END constant as the next form
instructs ENTRY to end processing of all forms.
