4.8.2 Adding Controls to an Existing Array

You can add controls to an existing array in the following manner:

  1. Use the mouse to select all of the controls you wish to add to an existing array.

  2. Right-click the mouse once on one of these newly selected controls to display a pop-up menu.

  3. Move the mouse to Array to display a secondary pop-up menu. Instead of selecting New Array, select the name of the existing array that you wish to add the currently selected controls to.

An informational dialog box appears to confirm that the new controls were added to the existing array. Click on the OK button to close this box.

When a new control is added to an existing array, it is added to the end of the array and PowerCOBOL automatically assigns its index value.

Note: You cannot add a control to an array using the cut and paste clipboard functions.
