IN NEXT HORIZONTAL BOX 'CURRENT' 'STOCK';
This command places a column heading in each column of
the table, using FONT 2. The system automatically centers
column headings.
The TEXT IN BOX command simplifies the task of placing
text in a series of adjacent boxes. You only need to specify
the coordinates of the upper–left corner of the first box.
Subsequently, when you enter a BOX command, the system
automatically recognizes the coordinates of a box directly
to the right of the current box. The keywords IN NEXT
HORIZONTAL are optional. It is also possible to specify the
box directly below the current box, however, you must
enter the keywords IN NEXT VERTICAL.
