# FORMM

Syntax:

Then: FORMM formname
Then: forum exp

where "name"' is the name of the form to be printed and "exp" is any expression that evaluates to a form name.

Version Ref: 4.0

Description:

(UNIX and network DOS) - Same as the FORM command, except that it does not close the print spooler. With the spooler open, any other forms sent to the spooler (with FORMM) will be grouped with the original. Use FORM with the last form to close the spooler. All the forms will be printed together, in the order in which they were sent to the spooler. FORMM is available in Inquire, Update, Add only.

Examples:

You could have a multi-page report, with each page a different form. When printing the report, use FORMM for all the pages (in order) up to the last page; for the last page, use FORM or exit Inquire, Update, Add to close the spooler. All the pages of the report will be printed consecutively, in order.
