Viewing reports on screen

Use the Viewer to review report information on your terminal or screen. Viewers help you control paper by allowing you to preview a document before you print it.

The vertical scroll bar in the graphical viewer enables you to move the selected page up and down within the window. It does not allow you to scroll through the entire document. Use the VCR buttons or the Page input to access various pages within a document.
