to the top of a form and try
it
out with:
10 V$=CHR$(ll)
40 LPRINT V$;"VT PHONE HOME"
\IT PHONE l-'IOl"lE
Sure enough, the CHR$(l1) (stored in V$) tabs down to line 3 and
prints the string: VT PHONE HOME.
But what about the rest of the VTabs set in line 20? Each one re-
quires a CHR$(l1). To test this, press the FF button to advance to the
top of the next form, then enter these lines to modify your program:
40 LPRINT V$;"RENTAL MAINTENANCE REQUEST";
60 LPRINT V$;"LOCATION"
100 LPRINT V$;"TENANT"
130 LPRINT V$;"SPOUSE"
160 LPRINT V$;"DEPENDENT(S)"
180 LPRINT V$;"MAINTENANCE REQUIRED": LPRINT
190 LPRINT V$;"TEST 1"
200 LPRINT V$;"TEST 2"
As you can see in Figure 9-2, the first six LPRINT V$ items use the tab
stops that were set in line 20. The next LPRINT V$ (line 190) feeds to
the top of the next form and prints TEST 1 on line
o.
From then on,
tabbing continues as usual, and the second form really starts with the
TEST 2 on line 3.
FF to the next page, then add the following lines to your program.
Count the spaces carefully.
70 LPRINT "j15j15j15ADDRESS:"
80 LPRINT "j15j15j15j15j15j15CITY:"
