7.104 REQUEST
The REQUEST command allows the user to input information at a workstation.
The REQUEST command is only valid in RDMLX functions when being used on the Web. If it is used elsewhere a fatal error occurs at runtime. If this occurs, either put your REQUEST command in an RDML function or use a Form to show user information.
