*{n} (PRINT)


 

*{n}

 

This list control sets the print position to the specified column on the current line (row). {n} may be a decimal constant, an Expression, a numeric variable, or an equated variable. It should be noted that some printers do not support tabbing to a position less than the current position (i.e., backwards tabbing) without arbitrarily forcing a new line (*N).

 

Note: This list control is obsolete and should not be used. Please use the *TAB={column} list control.
