"Old" letter codes are available here. The old letter codes were used in the program prior to the current method and still function.


Date code

In order to add or subtract days from a date:

 

If the Sale Date is 5/15/08 then >DateSale+5< would print 5/20/08.

If the Repo Date is 10/17/08 then >DateRepo-11< would print 10/06/08.

If the Sale Date is 5/15/08 then >DateSaleText< would print May 15, 2008.


Prompt code

In order to add a prompt screen, click on item "SetPrompt" and the prompt screen will appear. Type the desired prompt information.


Align code

Align makes it possible to align columns a certain width apart.  Click on Align under Category then SetColumnWidth to set the column (the program is defaulted to 30). Type Enter down to the next line and enter the columns to align. Type >Unalign< at the end of the columns. For example:

 

>Align30<

>DealerName<     >CustomerName<

>DealerStreet<     >CustomerStreet<

>Unalign<

 

Text will align to the left and numbers will align to the right. Spaces between codes will remain as spaces.

 


Math code.

In order to perform calculations, each value has been assigned a unique letter.

 

If the Sale Price = 10,000 and the Trade-In allowance = 1,000:

>MATH(A-B)< would print 9,000 (Sale Price minus Trade-In allowance).

 

If the Title Fee = 50 and the Repo Fee = 100 and the Other Fees = 200:

>MATH(D+F+G)< would print 350.

   One additional hint: if you put two codes on the same line then the

   first code may "push" the second code farther to the right to make

   room for the actual data.  To keep the second code from being pushed

   you can add a second "<" to the right of the code.  For example, the

   code for the dealers name would be entered as >01<< to keep it from

   being pushed right.
