This panel is used to assign aliases to attribute identifiers used on the list format panel.

Entry line fields can sometimes be longer than the data to be displayed, meaning the NCL variable to be defined in the entry line might not fit.

To overcome this, you can define a shorter variable name in the entry line, and then assign the name of the real field that is to be substituted when you display a list using the definition.

The value of an entry line field can be the same as that of the associated real field (when its length does not cause formatting difficulties).

For information about the fields and options displayed, press F1 (Help).

After entering the list definitions, press F3 (File). To cancel the list specification, press F12 (Cancel).
