You can control the USING Statements’ functionality (position, grouping, etc.) in your current workspace by setting preferences on the USING Statements options.

To set preferences for USING Statements:

  1. From the main menu, select Window > Preferences.
    The Preferences page appears.
  2. Select Progress OpenEdge > Advanced > USING Statements.
    The USING Statements preferences page appears.
  3. Set the following preferences for the USING Statements:
    • Position of the statements
    • Grouping and sorting of the statements
    • Style of the statements
    • Inclusion of the FROM ASSEMBLY/FROM PROPATH option
    • Preservation of valid statements
  4. Select Apply.
  5. Click OK to save your settings and close the preferences page.
    Note: To prevent existing, valid USING Statements from being relocated, they must be preserved in their original form and must not be grouped together. For more information, see the USING Statements options.
