The BOUNDS line command displays the boundary definition line. Syntax>>-+-BOUNDS-+-------------------------------------------------->< +-BOUND--+ +-BNDS---+ +-BND----+ '-BOU----' DescriptionThe BOUNDS line command provides an alternative to setting the boundaries with the BOUNDS primary command or macro command; the effect on the member or data set is the same. However, if you use both the BOUNDS primary command and the BOUNDS line command in the same interaction, the line command overrides the primary command.

The column numbers are always data column numbers (see Referring to column positions). Thus, for a variable format data set with number mode on, data column 1 is column 9 in the record. See Edit boundaries for more information, including tables that show commands affected by BOUNDS settings and default bounds settings for various types of data sets. ExamplesFigure 1 shows the boundary definition line displayed with the column identification line. Type BOUNDS in the line command field. Figure 1. Before the BOUNDS line command
Figure 2 shows that when you press Enter, the editor inserts the BOUNDS line and sets the left bound at column 43 and the right bound at column 69. Figure 2. After the BOUNDS line command
