Tip 4: File Aid Display

This is again one of the features i like in File Aid and got to know about this from my colleague :) thanks to her

When we have to verify a file which has numerous fields and we want to check just 2 or 3 fields isn't it a very boring idea to keep scrolling and many of us prefer the VFMT format compared to FMT.

Solution:

Suppose we want to check only 1st, 2nd and 10th fields in the file, we can issue the command:

DISPLAY 1,2,10 ONLY

And only these fields will be displayed
