Details

The GSET('ASF', . . . ) function sets an attribute's aspect source flag (ASF) so that it can be used in a bundle (BUNDLED) or individually (INDIVIDUAL).

If an attribute's ASF is set to 'BUNDLED', it cannot be used outside of a bundle. It must be defined in a GSET('xxxREP', . . . ) function and activated with a GSET('xxxINDEX', . . . ) function, where xxx can have one of the following values: FIL, LIN, MAR, TEX.

If an attribute's ASF is set to 'INDIVIDUAL', it cannot be used with a bundle. In this case, the attribute is set with a GSET('attribute', . . . ). The values of attribute are listed in “Argument Definitions.”
