I don't know of any equivalent on the 9000. VIEW is a block-mode application, and the progranning for block-mode apps on the 9000 is very tricky. VIEW is commonly knows as V/PLUS. You can find lots of information about the VIEW user-interface in the following manuals: HP Data Entry and Forms Mgmt. Sys. (VPLUS) Technical Addendum (32209-90021) HP Data Entry and Forms Management System (VPLUS/V) (32209-90001) Using VPLUS (32209-90004) HP 3000 Guide for the New User (32033-90009) MPE Commands Reference Manual (30000-90009) MPE Intrinsics Reference Manual (30000-90010) MPE Software Pocket Guide (30000-90049) Using Files (30000-90102) Native Language Support Reference Manual (32414-90001) You will also need the technical manual for the particular terminal that is using the VIEW app. You can probably forget about VT-class terminals! A really good source of information, of course, is the HP CD-ROM MPE/iX manuals. (Order 50726-10193) You will also need the HP-UX manuals, CD-ROM part number 50726-10157. Good Luck! (Did I mention VPLUS/Windows? Hah! That's another whole can of worms.) \KenR Manager MIS Robelle Consulting Ltd.
