Changing A Field
Value
The keys commonly used in the RSS to change a field value and their
respective functions are listed below.
Tab or Enter Used to accept data currently in the field and move the prompt
forward one field. If the entry is not accepted (that is, it is probably not
a valid value), an error beep will sound.
Del Used to erase the current character in a field.
PgUp Used to display the previous page of information on the screen.
PgDn Used to display the next page of information on the screen.
Screen fields come in three basic types:
Information fields Non-editable fields which cannot be altered or changed.
Scrollable fields Contain a range of values or several options from which you can select
the desired value/option. To edit or change a choice, use the UP/
DOWN arrow keys.
Direct-entry fields The desired value must be typed in. To edit or change a choice, type in
an acceptable value.
Changing a field’s value is typically done either by scrolling through a
list of options (in scrollable fields) or by typing in a correct or
acceptable value (in direct-entry fields). Scrolling is accomplished
using the arrow keys.
