The Electronic Notepad lets users maintain notes for each report they view. The notepad is free-format and dynamically sized, which lets you enter any of your thoughts, ideas, or comments while viewing the report. You can also copy and paste report information into the notepad for easy retrieval.
Notepad records are 126 bytes wide to fill a 132-column screen format and are horizontally scrollable for 80-column displays. You can type any kind of data in the notepad because there is no syntax checking.
To open a notepad from the Report Index panel, type N in the Cmd column next to the report entry and press Enter.
To open a notepad for an open report while viewing, type NOTES on the command line and press Enter.
The first time you open the notepad for a report, the following message displays:

Press Enter to create a new notepad for the report, or press END to cancel the request.
A new notepad, like the one shown in the following screen, initially contains ten blank records:
CA SymDump Batch V9.0 ------------ Notes -------------------------- Line 1 of 10 Command ===> Scroll ===> CSR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Program: SUBCOB Offset: 000026A Comp: S=0C7 Last Update: None ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lvl 2 Cmd ....+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7.... . . . . . . . . . . -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information area located at the top of the display identifies the report for which the notepad was created.
The final static line in this display is the highlighted ruler that scrolls left and right automatically as you scroll your notes.
The data portion of the display is both vertically and horizontally scrollable when the length or width of the notepad cannot be fully accommodated by your screen dimensions.
Type the I line command to insert a new blank record following any existing record in the notepad. Type the D line command to delete an existing record from the notepad.
When you have completed your updates, press END to save your updates and return to the display from which the notepad was entered. Use CANCEL to exit without saving your changes.
