7.23 DEF_FOOT

The DEF_FOOT command is used to define one or more foot lines for inclusion on a report.

Only fields of type Alpha, Packed and Signed may be specified. RDMLX field types cannot be specified.

Foot lines are printed on the lower portion of a page (between the last detail print line and the overflow line) before a new page is started.

You should read Producing Reports Using LANSA in the Developers Guide before attempting to use the DEF_FOOT command.
