Change mode allows you to change existing data.

In a non-paging screen, you must supply the key to the record before the other fields are presented for change, unless you are allowed to browse (and do so by pressing the next or previous key), or the key was pre-loaded via logic.  

In a paging screen, you can move around the screen as follows:

Item

Description

Next 

Moves cursor to beginning of next page.

Previous  

Moves cursor to beginning of previous page.

Top

Moves cursor to first record.

Bottom

Moves cursor to last record

Moves cursor to previous record.

Moves cursor to next record.

When the cursor is positioned on the record you want to change, press change, then ® or Tab to position the cursor on the first field that can be changed.

Pressing EDIT takes you into edit mode and allows you to edit data within fields.
