Defining a Menu Program

A menu program does not perform any database functions; its function is to provide transfers to other forms.

To define a menu program

  1. On the Program Definition form, select Menu in the Program Type field when defining the program. For more information, see Defining Programs.
  2. Press Define (F6) and choose Paint Program.
  3. On the Database Structure-Program Structure form, select the Menu task, press Define (F6), and choose Transfer.

    The Transfer menu appears. The Transfer menu title defaults from the program title.

    To add form IDs or text to the Transfer menu, see Defining Transfers.

  4. Press OK twice to save the menu.
  5. Press Exit to return to the Database Structure-Program Structure form.
