COUNT&, cont'd.
Chapter 2 Program Instructions
Remarks, cont'd. COPY:
Decides how many copies (labels etc.) will be printed before the counter is
updated according to the INC parameter.
Default: 1
INC:
Decides by which value the counter should be incremented or decremented
when it is updated. In case of decrementation, the value should contain a
leading minus sign.
Default: 1
STOP:
Decides the value after which the counter should start all over again at the
value specified by the RESTART parameter. If a single letter is entered (A–
Z), the counter will become an alpha counter, and if one or several digits are
entered the counter will be numeric. When a counter is decremented, a stop
value less than the start value must be given, since the default stop value will
never be reached.
Default: 2,147,483,647 (numeric) or Z (alpha)
RESTART:
Decides at which value the counter should start all over again after having
exceeded the STOP parameter value. If a single letter is entered (A–Z), the
counter will become an alpha counter, and if one or several digits are entered
the counter will be numeric.
Default: 1 (numeric) or A (alpha)
Examples In this example, a counter is created. It will start at number 100 and be
updated by a value of 50 after every second label until the value 1000 is
reached. Then the counter will start again at the value 200. All values will be
expressed as 4-digit numbers with leading zeros.
