Primary Heading Specifications Example

Here is an example of the Primary Heading Specifications panel for the test view presented in the previous example. The data displayed in these fields changes as the data in the specified position on the SYSOUT pages changes. To separate the fields in the heading, insert vertical bars with several blank spaces on either side.

******************************** BOTTOM OF DATA ********************************

The values in the fields indicate that:

• This heading does not scroll off the page as you scroll left to right.
• Although the primary heading has been defined using five lines on the specifications panel, all five lines are displayed in the view as one continuous line.
• Lines two and three are used to insert vertical bars between the pieces of data selected from record four of the SYSOUT.

The heading is displayed as shown in the following logical view illustration:

CA View  Browse - SWILSON5 ---- Rec 0000000 Pg 0000001.001 Lock 00 Col 001 080
Command ===>                                                  Scroll ===> PAGE 
NAME       |  MONTH TOTAL  | ACCOUNT NUMBER   |      DIVISION 

The data extracted from the SYSOUT by the specifications in lines one, three, and five changes as the data on the pages in that position changes. That is, with this heading, you can keep track of the month total, account number, and division as you scroll through the SYSOUT.
