Note TEDIT saves the REPLACE commands you give with the function keys on the REPLACE
response lines. If you press the REPLACE key now, you see the information you typed on
the RECONFIGURE FUNCTION-KEYS screen. It is important to remember this because
some REPLACE commands do not work with the EXTENDED-SEARCH option used in the
delete column function in step 6 above. You only use EXTENDED-SEARCH when you have
a wild-card pattern (such as ? or @) in the search-text or replace-text. If you want to give a
REPLACE command that does not use a wild-card pattern, make sure the Option field does
not contain EXTENDED-SEARCH.
If you pressed the REPLACE key to look at the response lines and now do not want TEDIT
to perform the replacement, simply press CANCEL.
Reversing Lines and Realphabetizing
To set up the horizontal headings so that the department names come first,
you need to reverse the current order of the names. You used this method
in Section 3 to put the names on the agenda in alphabetical order. Use the
MOVE and RETRIEVE functions to put the names and departments into the
correct order. Refer to Figure 5-2 if you want and follow the steps shown in
the next example.
1. Put the cursor on the line containing “administration”; this is the
department you want listed first in the series of horizontal headings.
Press LINE. Press MOVE. TEDIT moves the line to the scratchpad.
2. Move the cursor to the line containing “Yuen,” the administration
department head’s name. Press MOVE.
Continue to position the cursor on each line you want to move, in the order
given in the next example, then press MOVE to move the lines. In this way,
you reorder the list as you move each name-and-department pair from the
screen to the scratchpad. When you have moved all the names, your screen
is blank; everything is on the scratchpad.
