For Screen Input Fields

Within forms, Field Help menus or text messages are accessed by selecting field labels with the mouse from a full-feature workstation (or typing ?). From a basic-feature workstation, type a ? in the input field. The cursor must be positioned on the field for which help is needed. For tabular fields, the column label should be selected. Refer to Figure 1-4 for an example of selecting fields listed in tabular form.

Each field that accepts user input has associated field help. Depending on the type of field (either fixed parameter or variable parameter [i.e., a value within a range of values]), field help is either a selectable menu of valid field entries, or a text message which describes the valid input format(s) or entries.
