PRINT USING AND IMAGE
The PRINT USING statement and its associated image statement allow you to dis-
play specified scalar values in a format of your own choosing. The PRINT USING
statement specifies the values to be displayed and the line number of the image
statement to be used. The image statement specifies the format of the line to be
displayed. The syntax of the PRINT USING and image statements is as shown:
PRINT USING [file ref,1 line-num [, {arhith'i!XP}[{ .Varhith'i!XP}]] ..

where:
file ref is an optional specification of FLO to FL9 to identify the logical file into
which the formatted data is to be placed or FLP to specify printing. If not spec'
ified otherwise, the formatted data is displayed. FLO to FL9 must have been
previously referenced in an OPEN statement.
line-num is the statement number of the image statement that defines how data
is to be formatted when printed or displayed.
exp is an arithmetic or character value separated by semicolons or commas.
These values are incorporated (edited) into the format of the image statement
specified. A comma or semicolon can also follow the last expression.
print-image is the format specification (see Format Specifications),
When a PRINT USING statement is executed, the specified expressions are evaluated,
and their values are edited in order of appearance in the PRINT USING statement
into the corresponding format specifications in the specified image statement. A
string of character constants will be printed exactly as entered in the image state-
ment described in the following text.
