Table maximum linesΒΆ

max_line = integer

The maximum number of lines in the table. This may be set and changed dynamically using the form:

table_id->max_line = integer_expression

The rows clause defines the number of visible lines.

There may or may not be a default value, depending on the type of the table source object.

Source object

Default

Array field (!temp)

The dimension of the field.

Temporary record structure (!record)

If the structure is copied from a file, the number of records in the file. If the structure has its own field list, no default is set. A value must be assigned to max_line.

File (![o]file)

The number of records in the file.

Function (!function)

No default is set. A value must be assigned to max_line.

Note that if max_line is not set to a positive value the table has no lines, and so this clause is mandatory when the table source object is a function or temporary record structure.

The value of max_line may be changed at any time except, if the source is a function, from within that function.
