View Type Fields in SBP Transaction Rows

Several of the fields in SBP transaction rows contain a View Fields command that allows

you to see the contents of the data structures.

Left-click* on the field header to access the cell context menu, which contains the View

Fields commands. Selecting the command opens a View Fields dialog, which contains the

data laid out according to the SBP-3 specification. In some cases, fields (data_descriptor

and login_response, for example) are further broken down as defined by the standard.

*If the option Right click cell context menu is checked on the General tab of the Display Options dialog,

then the cell context menu is opened by right-clicking. See Section 5.1.1, “General Display Options” on

page 42 for more information.

For more information about the View Fields dialog, please see “View Fields Dialog” on

page 75.
