From this screen you can nominate the field required in 3 different ways:

  • In full. Enter the full name of the field required.
  • Partially. Enter as much as desired of the partial name of the field. A search is made for all fields which generically match the name specified and the resulting list is displayed for subsequent selection.
  • Leave blank. In this case a list of all fields in the data dictionary is displayed. The desired field can be selected from the list.

When you press Enter, a screen showing a list of fields is displayed.
