Underlines all non-blank characters in the preceding row.
To underline names cleanly, the UCHARACTERS command treats a single space between two non-space characters as a character to underline. For example, in the name Sales_Revenue, the underscore is changed to a space on output, UCHARACTERS changes the space to "_". Default underline character "=" is used.
Syntax
{ UCHARACTERS ["char"] }
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
"char" | Optional. A single-byte character, enclosed in quotation marks, used as the underline character. |
Notes
Double-byte characters are not supported.
Example
The following example is based on Demo Basic.
{UCHARACTERS} underlines all the characters in the previous (Television) row.
<PAGE (Market, Accounts, Scenario) Chicago Sales Actual <COLUMN (Year) <ICHILDREN Year <ROW (Product) Television { UCHARACTERS } VCR Compact_Disc !
This example produces the following report:
Chicago Sales Actual Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 Year ======== ======== ======== ======== ======== Television 4,410 4,001 4,934 6,261 19,606 ========== ===== ===== ===== ===== ====== VCR 3,879 3,579 4,276 4,877 16,611 Compact_Disc 3,150 3,021 3,032 3,974 13,177
