I was using PRO/FILE to handle a file and print-out of one line sales transactions, but entering the data of varying length and still keeping all segments of lines properly aligned caused me grief as well as a lot of “Data Too Long” errors. This revision of line 552 and an added line 554 prints a guideline at the bottom of the screen that clearly shows the spacing allowed. It eliminates much guesswork.

552 PRINT AT 16,0," INPUT DATA. PRESS JUST ENTER       TO DELETE";Q$;Q$
554 PRINT AT 21,0," NAME TO HERE MM-DD $$$$$.$$"
