difference between Put and display command in progress

[mfg_newbie]

Does any one tell me difference between put and display command?

thank in advance!

PUT statement: Sends the value of one or more expressions to an output destination other than the terminal.

DISPLAY statement: The same as PUT, but can also send the info to the terminal.

A main difference is the use of frames in DISPLAY and not in PUT.

hi MDaanje

My problem is I have a table with 3 records, if i use put it show 2 records on report and if i use display it show all 3 records on report. So what happen bt them?

Post some sample code and it will probably be obvious.

You're probably missing the "SKIP" at the end of the "PUT".

You have to tell "PUT" exactly what you want it to do...

If you still haven't found the problem , maybe you can put some sample code in the thread. (TomBascom already suggested it)
