Description: The “Columns” instruction is only taken into account by the For loop and Rewrite instructions. The Read and Write instructions still manage class [F] as a whole.
Syntax1: Columns class [(field [, field])]
Syntax2: Columnsclass With Mask (mask [, mask])]
Parameter details:
Class: Abbreviation of an open file
Field: Name of a field from the table.
Mask: Abbreviation of an open mask
Example: Here are the details of three fields i.e. BPRNUM, BPRNAM and BPAADD from table (BPARTNER).
In this screen shot, we have updated the field (BPRNAM ) to ’Emerald city bikes’ where BPRNUM=’P21’.
