Special Columns
Two special columns can be added to the template_BSUM.dbf file.
PNLNO
The inclusion of this column in the template will cause the records in the report to be sorted per panel.
TAGS COLUMNS ( TAGS1, TAGS2, TAGS3, ... )
You can specify as many TAGS columns as you want in your BSUM template file. If included these columns will contain a comma separated list of the tagnames of the components. EBASE will start fitting in the comma separated list from the first TAGS column and move to the next TAGS columns as shown in the figure below.
