Incremental Alphanumeric command; enter I.
idir
The optional increment direction parameter to
specify an increment (add) or decrement (subtract)
to the data. Enter a plus sign (+) or leave the field
blank to increment (the default). Enter a minus sign
(-) to decrement.
specify an increment (add) or decrement (subtract)
to the data. Enter a plus sign (+) or leave the field
blank to increment (the default). Enter a minus sign
(-) to decrement.
STEPMASK Defines the increment amount (step), the number
of character positions in the data field, and provides
a mask to control the increment function on specific
parts of the data. Refer to Table 5 on page 35 for
complete information on STEPMASK parameter
values.

RPT
n
The optional incremental repeat count parameter to
specify the number of times a particular field value
is repeated before it is incremented. A repeated
field value is useful when printing multiple
rows/columns of identical labels before increasing
to the next value.

n with a numeric value ranging from 1 to
65,535 to specify the repeat count. The default
repeat count parameter is 1, which will increment
the field value each time it prints.
