About The Workarea Status Window.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The Workarea status window shows you some brief information about the
current workarea, such as the workarea number, the alias name, the currently
selected index, if any, the current record number, the index key and the
actual index expression.

┌─ 6 Workarea 1 Status ───────────────┐ You may view further areas by using
WorkArea:1 - MICHELLE │ the <Page Up> and <Page Down> keys
Record:333/1795 │ to jump to the previous area and to
Index:1 - E:\RCV\MICHELLE.NTX │ jump to the next area. The <Home>
Index Key:FILM+YEAR+RATING │ key will take you to the first work-
Actual Key:"ZZZ9991983Hmmmmm....Yes" │ area. The <END> key takes you to
└─────────────────────────────────────┛ the last used workarea.

For these keys to work. The Workarea status window, must be the currently
selected window.

By default, the workarea window will change to reflect the current workarea,
i.e. each time that the workarea changes, the workarea window will change to
reflect the new work area.

You may override this, by using any of the keys that affect the workarea
window. The moment that you press a key, the window will not update to
reflect any changes to workareas. It will only update to reflect changes to
the workarea shown in the window. Should you re-size the window, then you
will be able to see the contents of the record.
