Shifting Right and Left

While most screen displays are 80 columns wide, many reports are 132 columns wide, and a report may even be 256 columns wide. To view a 132-column report in an 80-column screen, it is necessary to shift the display to the right and to the left. Displays may be shifted by using the predefined PFKeys for RIGHT and LEFT:
