By default, the fixed section of ALHISTR is hidden. The hyperlink on the first field of the fixed section (-|+) is used as a toggle to show (include) or hide (exclude) the fixed section. The primary commands INC FIX and EXC FIX serve the same purpose as the - and + hyperlinks. The following figure is an example of ALHISTR with the fixed section displayed.
