updated, you can press your EDITSWAP; SWAPSEL PFKEY and be
swapped directly to an edit session on the record that was at
the top of the file screen browse session. Another example; you
are editing a file and you would like to see more than one
record at a time. Press a PFKEY and you are swapped to a full
screen browse with the record you were editing at the top of the
browse screen. |
