Note: The Task ID is only visible if Task Tracking is active.
By using the Function Key to display the Task ID locked to a file the screen is amended with the Task ID displayed on the right of the screen.
From the Select File to Work with you can nominate the file required in 3 different ways:

In full. Enter the full name of the file required.
Partially. Enter as much as desired of the partial name of the file. A search is made for all files which generically match the name specified and the resulting list is displayed for subsequent selection.
Leave blank. In this case a list of all files in the LANSA system is displayed. Select the desired file from the list.

When you press Enter, a screen showing a list of files is displayed.

From the Select File to Work with you can:

Alter the file name at the top right of the screen. The change can be to specify a full file name, a partial file name or a change to blanks. In all cases another search is made for the file required.
Select one of the files from the list by positioning the cursor on the required file and pressing Enter.

Use the Dsp/Hid Tsk ID function key to display the Task ID locked to a file. The Task ID replaces the display on the right of the screen.
