Let me suggest you use your F1 function key - put your cursor on the
item you are interested in and press F1 - almost all IBM software has
context-sensitive help that can answer most of your questions. This
applies to green-screen output as well as the graphical output.

Ozgur -

Use JDE 'Hidden Selection' number 40 on any JDE menu...

This will cause the JDE 'File Fields Description' window to pop up,

which

allows you to enter the file name and library name.

If you then press <Enter>, it will show the list of fields in the file,
along with their descriptions and attributes. While viewing the
information
for a file, you can enter '2' into the selection option field for the

file

fields and view the JDE Data Dictionary information.

Hi Friends;

Can you please how I can inquire and know the database columns and field
names (together with their real names/synonyms ) in AS/400 ISeries?

Through AS/400 Operations Navigator? or through any other supplemental
tools?

*For example*:

*GLPN.....G/L Period Number*
*GLLT......Ledger Type*
*GLDCT........Document Type*
*GLDOC........Document Number*

Maybe it's one of the minor issues for most of you (IBM experts),

however a

major question for such non-technical persons like me :)
