Out put of the screen not coming and telling unrecognized phrase/keyword in command.
I can not append the screen to add records. what mistakes i have done in the program Can you help in this matter.
For example remove the single quote after FATHER'S, HUSBAND'S
Instead of using
'@ 16,25 SAY 'FATHERS' name/Husband's NAME:'
Use
@ 16,25 SAY 'FATHER Name/Husband NAME:'
@ 12,25 SAY 'P.F. NUMBER:' GET pfno PICTURE "9999"
@ 14,15 SAY 'EMPLOYEE NAME' GET empname PICTURE "@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@"
