Abstract
Many problems associated with using fourth generation languages stem from people and environments rather than the software itself. Some users become designers — resulting in application and sharing and recycling. If these applications are to be reliable, maintainable, and expandable, communication in this shared environment is critical.
This paper explores the use of structured programming concepts, techniques, and tools used for solving design and documentation problems.
Sample
The named range dictionary should include information regarding system, spreadsheet and/or framework, and by whom and when the dictionary entry was prepared.
The dictionary should list the range name or its alias, the cell location, named subset ranges, a brief named range description, and reference location.
