To establish placement for the rest of the column headings, make each
column at least twelve characters wide or put at least two spaces
between it and the next heading. (You can refer to the tab stops shown
in the profile at the end of this section if you want to use the same
columns used in these examples.) Using the column headings listed in
Figure 5-2, type the headings on the same line as “SALARIES.” After

commands are LEFTSCROLL and RIGHTSCROLL.

To see the part of the file that is to the right of the screen, you scroll the file
to the left. Use the command LEFTSCROLL followed by the number of
columns you want to scroll. To scroll the TABLE file to the left, follow these
