Counting fields in the session window during macro development

When you are editing a Field Counts and OIA descriptor and you want to set the Number of Fields field and the Number of Input Fields field to the correct values, you can use the Current button beside each input field to count the fields in the application screen for you.

To use this feature follow these steps:
  1. Click on the session window to activate it (see Using the session window).
  2. In the session window, go to the application screen corresponding to the macro screen that you are working on.
  3. In the Description tab select the Field Counts and OIA descriptor.
  4. On the Description tab click the Current button immediately to the right of the Number of Fields input field. The Macro Editor counts the number of fields in the current application screen and then displays the count in the input field.
  5. On the Description tab click the Current button immediately to the right of the Number of Input Fields input field. The Macro Editor counts the number of input fields in the current application screen and then displays the count in the input field.
