Figure 2-3. Override Value for a Box Attribute
When you enter an ADD BOX command, ENABLE assumes that you have
completed your description of a box. ENABLE uses the contents of
the attribute table to determine this description. ENABLE
evaluates the values in the attribute table as follows:
• An override value, if present, takes precedence over a current
or starting value.
• A current value, if present, takes precedence over a starting
value.
• If neither an override nor a current value is present, ENABLE
uses the starting value.
If you do not supply either a current or override value for some
attributes whose starting values are null, ENABLE can supply a
default value. ENABLE can, for example, supply a default value
for the DATAFILE attribute. ENABLE obtains this value from the
record description identified by the value of the RECORD
attribute.
