SELECT - Screen

Obsolete Syntax

SELECT *
       FROM dbtab
       WHERE col1 = f1 AND col2 = f2 ...
       INTO wa
       WHENEVER [NOT] FOUND
        SEND { ERRORMESSAGE | WARNING } [num [WITH { p1 ... }]].

Effect

Using the SELECT statement alone in the screen flow logic is obsolete. The effect of the statement is described in its - also obsolete - usage as an addition of the FIELD statement.
