RMC Interface Records Option

Overview

The records option constructs a list of variables in the view. This option should be used when the variable names are known at the time the template is created.

The records section is similar to the headlines section, except the variables are displayed in a list and the number of the variables is not limited to six—you can define up to 1000 variables.

The other difference from the headlines section is that records section must be in the template on its own—a template cannot have both a LIST section and a TABLE section.
