2. Enter what you want to locate in the Find text box.
3. Leave the ASCII option button selected, as it is by default, or select the EBCDIC or
HEX option button.
4. You can check the Ignore case check box to find either an uppercase or lowercase
string specified in the Find text box. Leave this option off, as it is by default, to find a
string with the case you specify.
5. In the Search from area, Top is selected by default to search from the start of the file.
Select Cursor to have ACL search from the cursor position.
If you selected Record instead of File in the Dump window, ACL will search only the
record.
6. Click [Find]. ACL highlights the first occurrence of the string in the Dump window.
ACL changes the default to Cursor. Click [Find] again to jump to the next occurrence, and so on.
ACL displays the message “No match found” when there are no more occurrences of
the string.
7. Click [Close] when you have finished.
You will recall from the results of the Verify command that there is a problem with
record 2 in the Total field. To specify a dump of the invalid data, you must first find out
the field location.
▼
To determine the location of the Total field in the input file:
1. Select Edit from the menu bar and choose Input File Definition.
2. In the defined fields list view, you can see that Total starts at position 62 and is 14
bytes long. From this you know that the invalid data is between positions 62 and 75.
3. Double-click Total. When you have finished locating the Total field, close the Data
Definition window.
