View Window
The View window enables you to interactively view reports. You can advance directly to a page or
search for text strings to locate information within a report. You can use the function keys to
display a specific page, print pages of a report, and search for information. You can view reports
that are bigger and wider than a terminal screen by using the terminal’s arrow keys to scroll the
screen vertically and horizontally. The tab key can also be used to shift the report page 80
characters to the right. This makes it possible to quickly view the sections of a report not displayed
on the screen.
The View window header contains important details about the report, starting with the file name in
the upper left corner. The header displays the page number, and the description assigned to the
report as well. If a description has not been assigned to a report, the header contains the associated
job and spool file ID numbers. The View window is shown below:
