CEMT INQUIRE FILE
by tabbing (they appear in the same sequence as in
the expanded format), and overtype with input valid
for that field. You may find it more convenient to use
the expanded format when setting one of these
values, (negating is easier because you are
overtyping a displayed field with its negative causing
the result to become non-displayed).
If you place the cursor against a specific entry in the list and
press ENTER, CICS displays an expanded format as shown
in Figure 75.
