This facility allows you to build temporary lists of fields from the LANSA data dictionary and display them on the screen. From these displayed lists fields can be chosen for inclusion into your document.
These lists can be built from all fields, only fields that have a certain generic name, or all fields in the dictionary can be chosen automatically for inclusion into your document.
A displayed list may not fit on one screen. This is indicated by a "+" sign in the lower right of the screen. In such cases use the roll up and roll down keys to scroll backwards and forwards through the displayed list.
Fields shown in the displayed list which are already included in the document are shown with an "X" beside them. The "X" cannot be removed. Thus a field cannot be removed from the document using this facility. Use the option "Review/exclude objects in document" to do this. This option is described in detail in a later section.
When you want to choose a field from the displayed list for inclusion into the document enter a "Y" beside it in the column headed "Sel".
When you have completed using this facility, use the Cancel function key to return to the "Review/Change Selected Objects" Menu.
