Figure 6-4. Screen With DDL Headings as Screen Labels
A RESET command appears before the SET BOX command that
identifies the "dependents" record description. When you use the
SET command to supply values for the box attributes that describe
one box, use the RESET command to reset these box attributes to
their current values before you begin describing another box. If
you use the SET BOX command but do not use the RESET command,
ENABLE will use any current box attribute-values that remain in
the attribute table for the next box that you add.
