HP ALLBASE/4GL Internal Routines
You can use function keys in an application to initiate any of the HP
ALLBASE/4GL internal routines. To assign an internal routine to an
application screen function key, enter I- followed by the internal
routine name, in the action field, on the function keys definition
screen.
I-BACKTAB This routine moves the cursor to the previous
field on the screen.
I-CLEAR This routine clears all input and display only
fields on the current screen.
I-COMMIT This routine terminates all current screen
processing.
I-EXIT This routine terminates execution of HP
ALLBASE/4GL and returns to the operating
system.
I-HELP This routine displays the help screen
associated with the current message, field, or
screen.
I-hpqm_call This routine suspends HP ALLBASE/4GL and starts
HP ALLBASE/QUERY. The welcome screen is
bypassed, and the user is connected to the
application's SQL database. HP ALLBASE/4GL
processing resumes when the user exits from
QUERY.
I-image_dbchg_call This routine suspends HP ALLBASE/4GL processing
and invokes the HP TurboIMAGE DBchange/XL
program. Processing of HP ALLBASE/4GL resumes
when the user exits HP TurboIMAGE DBchange/XL.
I-image_dbutl_call This routine suspends HP ALLBASE/4GL processing
and invokes the HP TurboIMAGE DBUTIL program.
HP ALLBASE/4GL processing resumes when the user
exits HP TurboIMAGE DBUTIL.
I-image_query_call This routine suspends HP ALLBASE/4GL processing
and invokes HP QUERY/XL, if it is on your
system. HP ALLBASE/4GL processing resumes when
the user exits HP QUERY/XL.
I-isql_call This routine suspends execution of HP
ALLBASE/4GL, and starts ISQL, if this program
is installed on your system. Normal HP
ALLBASE/4GL processing resumes when the user
exits ISQL.

application and displays the HP ALLBASE/4GL
sign-on screen. (Note that this routine name
is in lowercase letters.)
I-MAINMENU This routine displays the application's main
menu. This is either the initial action
specified for the application or the first menu

keys on the application screen with the
previous set of function keys.

can also repaint the screen by pressing CTRL +

screen on a slave printer attached to the
user's terminal.
