How can I find out what fields are in a file?

 

A)

 

If you have fast path you can put a ‘40’ on a command line and it will show you the 98FFD File Field Descriptions. You can enter the file name and it will pull up the fields.

 

Example of part of the F0911:

 

98FFD        File Field Descriptions         S/FMT
