# Copy operators

Operator Function

=n To copy the value from the same cell in record n.
== To copy the values from the same cell and all following cells in the preceding record.
==n To copy the values from the same cell and all following cells in record n.

# Increment operators

The increment operators copy the value from the same cell in the preceding record and perform an operation on that. They apply to numeric fields only.

Operator Function
+=f To add f to the copied value.
−=f To subtract f from the copied value.
*=f To multiply the copied value by f.
/=f To divide the copied value by f.

If the increment, f, is omitted then the default value is used as the increment.
