Accessing edit and browse function


To access the Edit function, select option 2 from the File-AID Primary Option Menu or enter the appropriate jump command (for example, =F.2) from any File-AID screen. Select option 1 from the File-AID Primary Option Menu or use the appropriate jump command (for example, =F.1) from any File-AID screen to access the Browse function. See Selecting-screens. When you press Enter, the File-AID Edit - Dataset Specification screen is displayed as shown Dataset Specification Screen Character, formatted, vertical formatted, and unformatted edit modes are accessed through this screen. You can also access the File-AID Edit function by using the line command 2 when viewing a selection list of data sets presented by File-AID Catalog utility (3.4) or the VTOC utility (3.7). For the Browse function, use the line command 1 on a selection list.

In addition, File-AID provides an FEDIT primary command that allows you to recursively invoke the Edit function. See FEDIT (FE, F2) for information on this command. For Browse, the recursive primary command is FBROWSE. See FBROWSE-FB-F1.
