Re: Variable tips

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"... If you specify a location of a field in a record and the field is 
not ignored, you can specify the location of subsequent fields within 
that record by leaving the line number blank and specifying a plus value 
(+n) for 42 through 44 (position entry). The plus value indicates the 
number of spaces to be left between the end of the previous field and 
the beginning of the field that you are defining. The plus value must be 
in the range of 0 through 99. If you specify a plus value, the line 
number entry must be blank. ..."
