Tracy,
Try the fcopy command and set the output to the screen.
For example, specifying the 'char' output option gives me:
(I'll only reproduce the first [0th] record here)
:fcopy from=ifile.fdatabas;to=;char
HP31900A.05.04 FILE COPIER (C) HEWLETT-PACKARD CO. 1999
LOCKWORD: IFILE.FDATABAS.ICI?
IFILE.FDATABAS RECORD 0 (%0, #0)
00000: ..........
Not much help...how about the 'hex' option?
:fcopy from=ifile.fdatabas;to=;hex
HP31900A.05.04 FILE COPIER (C) HEWLETT-PACKARD CO. 1999
LOCKWORD: IFILE.FDATABAS.ICI?
IFILE.FDATABAS RECORD 0 (%0, #0)
0000: 0008 0000 0000 0000 0000
Aha...this generally agrees with Terry's description
The value in the first byte (in hex) '8' is indeed the numnber of addtional
records in the file.

Maybe this will help someone figure it out for you Tracy: MANMAN Print
Queue Files, like IFILE, SOFIL, SDFIL) usually have 10 byte records
because each Document Number in MANMAN is that length. But record 0,
the first record in the file, is only using the first 2 bytes as an
Integer count of the number of "active" documents in the print queue.
The other 8 bytes of the 0th record never get initialize and are garbage
that was in the buffer when the record was written to disc.

Subject: [MANMAN:4614] Display Function Behavior on 3 Emulators
Importance: Low
When using Display Functions on 3 HP terminal emulators I get
three differing results when displaying the same file.
The file is IFILE.FDATABAS a MANMAN file record #1. I'm using
two lines to represent non displayable characters to get my
point across. Blanks are shown as blanks.
Which is the proper representation?
(I suppose I could have it display in Hex or Octal but that
would be too easy.)
