+.TH form_field 3X 2023-11-25 "ncurses 6.4" "Library calls"
+.SH NAME
+\fBform_field\fP \-
+make and break connections between fields and forms
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+\fB#include <form.h>
+.PP
+\fBint set_form_fields(FORM *\fIform\fP, FIELD **\fIfields\fP);
+\fBFIELD **form_fields(const FORM *\fIform\fP);
+\fBint field_count(const FORM *\fIform\fP);
+\fBint move_field(FIELD *\fIfield\fP, int \fIfrow\fP, int \fIfcol\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The function \fBset_form_fields\fP changes the field pointer array of
+the given \fIform\fP. The array must be terminated by a \fBNULL\fP.
+.PP
+The function \fBform_fields\fP returns the field array of the given form.
+.PP
+The function \fBfield_count\fP returns the count of fields in \fIform\fP.
+.PP
+The function \fBmove_field\fP moves the given field (which must be disconnected)
+to a specified location on the screen.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The function \fBform_fields\fP returns a pointer (which may be \fBNULL\fP).
+It does not set \fBerrno\fP.
+.PP
+The function \fBfield_count\fP returns \fBERR\fP if the \fIform\fP parameter
+is \fBNULL\fP.
+.PP
+The functions \fBset_form_fields\fP and \fBmove_field\fP return one of
+the following codes on error:
+.TP 5
+.B E_OK
+The routine succeeded.
+.TP 5
+.B E_BAD_ARGUMENT
+Routine detected an incorrect or out-of-range argument.
+.TP 5
+.B E_CONNECTED
+The field is already connected to a form.
+.TP 5
+.B E_POSTED
+The form is already posted.
+.TP 5
+.B E_SYSTEM_ERROR
+System error occurred (see \fBerrno\fP(3)).
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These routines emulate the System V forms library.
+They were not supported on
+Version 7 or BSD versions.
+.PP
+The SVr4 forms library documentation specifies the \fBfield_count\fP error value
+as \-1 (which is the value of \fBERR\fP).
