Creating Logical Views › Specifying and Accessing Page Indexes › Accessing the Page Index Selection List

Accessing the Page Index Selection List

1. Do one of the following options in the View Selection panel (see the preceding illustration):
   • Enter the number of the view on the command line.
   • Enter S to the left of the desired entry.
2. Optionally, enter a value in the Index Value field that is used with your selection.

   If there is an exact match between the value entered and a page index value, that text is displayed directly (bypassing the Page Index Selection List). If there is not an exact match, the Page Index Selection list is presented and you are positioned as close as possible to the value entered. If the logical view selected does not contain a page index, the index value is ignored.

3. Press Enter to display the Page Index Selection List.

This list displays all of the values that the product found for the selected index. This selection list allows you to display either all of the pages in the SYSOUT or report, or display only those pages selected by the chosen index. The Page Index Selection list supports the LOCATE command which you can use to scroll directly to a particular page index value.

Use the LOCATE command to scroll directly to a particular page index value.

Text for the LOCATE command is converted to uppercase. This is true if the value is entered on either the command line of the Page Index Selection list or in the Index Value field of the View Selection panel. To retain the case of the entered value, enter it as a text string (t'textstring'). For example:

Index Value ===> abCDefg

locates "ABCDEFG".

Command ===> LOCATE  t'abCDefg'

locates "abCDefg".
