You can use an arithmetic expression almost anywhere that you can use an arithmetic value. Examples:

• As a parameter for a screen, for example:
  • To specify a recognition limit for a screen
  • To specify a pause time for a screen
• As a parameter for a descriptor, for example:
  • To specify a row or column in cursor descriptor
  • To specify the number of fields in a numeric field count descriptor
  • To specify a row, column, or attribute value in an attribute descriptor
  • As a term in a conditional descriptor
• As a parameter in an action, for example:
  • To specify a row or column in a mouse click action
  • As the number of milliseconds in a pause action
  • To specify a value in a variable update action
  • As a term in a conditional action
• As an initial value for a variable
