SCROLL

Use the SCROLL command to move forward and backward through the lines of a panel that you cannot display all at one time on a single screen. Use the following format for this command:

►►─┬─ SCROLL ─┬─┬──────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────►◄
   └─ SCR ────┘ └─ option ─┘

If you do not add a keyword with the SCROLL command, CA Datacom Datadictionary scrolls the display forward the set number of lines in a region with the last line of the previous display at the top of the new display. You can also issue this command with the PF8 key.
