REVIEW AND CORRECT ENTERED DATA
After entering data in a set of records, it is a good idea to proof the
data. As you learned in Section 3, this can be accomplished with Browse
mode.
Action
Press BROWSE to go into Browse/Modify mode and then press FIRST REC to
view the first record in the file.
You can then proceed sequentially through the entire file, checking the
data entered in each record, by pressing NEXT REC. Currently, there are
only two records in the file, NEWDATA. Note that you do not have to view
the data in the same session in which it was entered. For instance, if
you have exited from ENTRY, you only have to request the same batch file
when you next run ENTRY and then immediately press BROWSE to view the
data.
Action
Press EXIT, then issue the run command for ENTRY, as shown in Figure
4-15. When ENTRY asks for the batch file name, type the file name
NEWDATA.
ENTRY then displays the form for Record #3, also shown in Figure 4-15.
