Bill,
Right click on a physical file object (not sure if it works on logical files 
yet) in RSE tree view and select show in table -> fields.  This will open the 
iSeries Field Table View which gives all the field information.

I just did for the first time.  It is very nice!  It reminds me of one short 
coming ... the outline view of the RPG (or other) program doesn't have any way 
to show the TEXT associated with the field in a file. Showing the properties of 
fields in files would be very nice.
Thanks for all your help.

Hi Tim,
1. The tree view doesn't support this - although if you look at the properties 
view - you will see the description when an item is selected in the tree view.  
You should probably try the table view.
2. Keys can be easily remapped to do other things  - check the mailing list 
archives for discussions on this at length.  You'll also want to read the 
reference help for what LPEX actions are available/do (scrollTop, scrollUp come 
to mind)
3. Remote Systems LPEX Editor has an auto-save feature.  Default is set to 
every 5 minutes.  Check out Windows>Preferences, Remote Systems>Remote Systems 
LPEX Editor
4. There is no way to currently do this.  It is on our list of requirements.
5. Standard windows copy/paste keys can be used, along with a few extras 
provided in LPEX (check the Edit menu for selection options)
6.  Drag and drop from table view to RS LPEX is currently not available.
It is also on our list of requirements.
7.  Ctrl+F5, or either Source>Remove Errors, or Source>Refresh.   Its on
our list of requirements to automatically remove these during error list 
reloads.
I recommend that you try the tutorials included in the product as well as the 
PDM/SEU transition to RSE/LPEX - which was revamped and rewritten for v7.0.  
Also, if you go to the WDSC web site
(
http://www.ibm.com/software/awdtools/wdt400) and search the support section - 
you will find additional tutorials and the labs from COMMON.

Hello to all,
There has been lots of talk about this product that has spilled over
onto
the midrange list, and it has me once again attempting to give it a
shot.
I
hate to think of myself as non adaptive and unable to embrace new 
technologies, methods, etc.  So hear goes again.  Currently I'm only
coding
old school RPG type programs, so the following questions pertain to RSE.
And most of the following relates back to how I do things in PDM/SEU,
only
because that's all I know at the moment.  I attempted a fairly easy 
modification to an existing program, and came up with the follow list 
of things I found that I take for granted in SEU.
1.  Is there a way to list libs, objects, members, etc in the Remote
Systems
view with descriptions?
2.  Can I condition page ups and downs by cursor position?  Or at 
least
jump
the cursor to the top or bottem of the displayed view, then I could 
roll
by
line up or down.
3.  In SEU, when I hit <enter>, I know it has been saved, even if I
loose
my
session.  Do I have to continually save my work?
4.  In SEU, when I hit enter, the editor will automatically position 
my cursor to where I need to key additional data?  I know tab moves me 
to
the
next input position, but not whether it requires input.  And by the 
time auto syntax checking informs me, I have spent time reading the 
message, relocating my cursor, etc.
5.  Do I have to use the mouse to copy lines from one member to another?
6.  How can I copy field names in to the member?  I added a table to 
the Table View, I can see all my fields, but can't copy and paste from
there.
7.  After compiling, getting errors, and fixing them, and recompiling 
successfully, the error messages are still showing in the edit view. 
How can I get rid of them with out closing the member?
Believe it or not, I had a lot more questions, but figured many of 
them
out.
Which brings up my last question (for now:).  How do you work through 
learning the functionality of this application?  Currently I'm just 
stumbling through the basics, and I know I'm not doing many things the
most
productive way.
Thanks for all you help,  Tim
