Re: Advice to a newbie..

Keith,

Try the DSPPFM (DiSPlay Physical File Member) command.  
This will allow you to see the entire file.

Use Pageup/pagedown to scroll vertically through the file.

Use Wnn (where nn is 1 - 307) in the 'control' field to
scroll horozontally through the file.

hth,

jte
