INDTXT (Indicator Text) keyword for display files
You use this file-level, record-level, or field-level keyword to associate a descriptive text (indicating intent or use) with a specific response or option indicator. You can specify the keyword once for each response and option indicator.
INDTXT(indicator 'indicator-text')
If you specify this keyword, indicator-text is a required parameter value. The text is included on the computer printout created at program compilation time to explain the intended use of the indicator. This text's only function in the file or the program is a comment. The single quotation marks are required. If you specify more than 50 characters between the single quotation marks, the text is truncated to 50 characters on the program computer printout.
Option indicators are not valid for this keyword.
