Editing a Switch-Based Bulletin Board Message
As stated before, a message may contain up to three pages of information with
the first 10 lines on page 1 reserved for Lucent Service’s
High-Priority
messages
(the “INIT”, “INADS”, and “craft” logins can edit the first 10 lines on page one).
Pages 2 and 3 will allow up to 20 lines of 40 characters of text. Each line has a
date field to show when the line is modified.
The control keys used to edit existing feature forms must be used to edit a
message in the Switch Based Bulletin Board. The following characters are
allowed for use in the text field:
■ Uppercase/Lowercase letters, spaces, numerals, and !@#$%^ &*()_
-+=[]{};’”<>./?.
NOTE:
Tab characters are not allowed. The existing command line interface will
cause the cursor to move to the next field if a Tab character is entered.
If a user changes any lines which cause 2 or more consecutive blank lines the
bulletin board is automatically reorganized (upon submittal). Two or more blank
lines are changed to a single blank line. A blank line is at the top of a form is also
deleted. This prevent holes in the bulletin board screens as old entries are
deleted.
To save a message entered into the bulletin board text field, you must execute
the
save translation
command.
