I am having a little difficulty understanding what you want to do. Are you
saying:
1. you have a screen that displays a single record with a large text field
and you want to know how to edit it?
2. you have a screen that displays a single record with a large text field
and you want to know how to manipulate it in procedural logic?
3. you have a screen that displays a large temp text field and you want to
append data from several records into it?
When you say "huge data from 3 to 4 files" do you mean the screen is reading
3 to 4 files and the combination of records represents a lot of data on the
screen?
I think you are saying you want to concatenate the data field the same field
in many records of one file together into a temp field on the screen. If so
why? How do you know how many records you will have to concatenate? Is
2000 bytes going to be enough?
Regards,
Blue

Dear Sir,
While getting huge data from 3 to 4 files in to a Filed (filed defined
variable is declared character 2000 and also used "FOR 15,80"), to
differentiate each and every file's data, how to move the data to the next
line after displaying first files' data in find mode.
i.e
TEMP T_TEXT CHAR*2000
FIELD T_TEXT
FOR 15,80
DISPLAY
while using this logic, the data is mixed with all files and unable to
identify quickly.
procedure
begin
let t_text = field1 of file1
let t_text = truncate(t_text)+filed1 of file2
end
Required format is like:
eg.
=============================================
Firstfile date - aaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
SecondFile data - bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
Thirdfile data - ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
Fourthfile data - ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
dddddddd
==============================================
Thanks & Regards
Ganapathi
