TAILORING AN APPLICATION
Excluding Fields From a Box

Excluding Fields From a Box

If the users of an application do not need to see the contents of
certain fields, you can exclude these fields from display on the
screen. Consider, for example, the "employee-info" application.
Since this application is to be used to display general
information about employees and their dependents, you might not
want to display a dependent's age. You could exclude the field
("dependent-age") that stores a dependent's age by specifying the
following in the series of commands that describe "depends-box":

SET EXCLUDE (dependent-age)

Figure 6-8 shows the screen that "employee-info" will display if
you supply the attribute values discussed thus far. This figure
also shows the preceding SET EXCLUDE command within the series of
commands used to generate the application.
