ABSOLUTE
The ABSOLUTE attribute (PROP:ABSOLUTE) ensures that the DETAIL, or group HEADER or FOOTER structure (contained within a BREAK structure), always prints at a fixed position on the page. When ABSOLUTE is present, the position specified by the x and y parameters of the structure's AT attribute is relative to the top left corner of the page. ABSOLUTE has no effect on following structures printed without the ABSOLUTE attribute.
Example:
CustRpt REPORT,AT(1000,2000,6500,9000),THOUS
HEADER
!structure elements
END
CDetail1 DETAIL,AT(0,0,6500,1000)
!structure elements
END
CDetail2 DETAIL,AT(1000,1000,6500,1000),ABSOLUTE !fixed position detail
!structure elements
END
