Creating Control List Selectors and Tags

Publication 2711E-818 – January 1998

If there are any errors, fix them and revalidate the screen until there
are no errors. Then you’re ready to exit and save the application.

Tip: Leave the Validation Results window open on your desktop
while you’re making the necessary changes to the screen. You may
want to resize the window and move it slightly off screen. When
you’ve made a correction, choose Update on the Validation Results
window. This will check the changes you’ve made. If you want, you
can print the Validation Results window.

Viewing the Tag Usage for the Screen

Before you exit the screen, look at the tags assigned to objects in the
screen. You can do this with the Screen Tag Usage Viewer.

To open the Screen Tag Usage Viewer:

1. Choose Screen Tag Usage Viewer from the Screen menu or

press

F5

.

The Tag Usage Viewer for Screens appears. It shows all the tags
that are configured for objects in this screen. You can search,
filter, adjust the column widths, and print the listing.

2. Look for the tag you just created. You’ll find it in Row 16. Tags

are sorted alphanumerically according to whether they are Input
or Output, and according to their address.
