displaying data to screen

[Nancy Tietz]

Perhaps it would be helpful to look at the manual for DEBUG.

First compile the screen in DEBUG mode then run it in DEBUG mode.
:QDESIGN DEBUG
> USE mysource
> EXIT
:QUICK AUTO=myprog.OBJ ; INFO="DEBUG=SOURCE"

The commands I use are:
 STEP 1        (or some other number of steps to skip to)
 DISPLAY  fieldnames
 DISPLAY PRE    (shows preset fields - very helpful)
 
It will show you the screen as it progresses as well as where you're at in
your code, and the result of what you enter.  

You could also emulate in QUIZ what you are trying to do in Quick and see if
it works.   Or you can create a simple screen that just shows the data first
before adding in the bells and whistles.

Hope that helps.
Nancy
