Selecting the type of file to be printed

Select an option number on the Print Selection Menu to specify the type of file you want to print. In this example, you print the FASAMP.EMPLOYEE file using a record layout to format the data fields in each record.

Since you want to print a data file, select the Print Data File option (1).

Steps:

  1. Type a 1 in the OPTION field to select the Print Data File utility.
  2. Press Enter. File-AID displays the Print Data File screen as illustrated in Print Data File Screen.
