Select Display (click here to view an example) from the Query menu to view ARs that match the query criteria defined in the active Query window or that are selected in an active Query List window. You can also select the Display tool bar icon or type Ctrl+D. In a Query List window, you can display a subset of the listed items by selecting only the items you want to display.
The Display window shows one AR at a time. Use the Previous and Next Actions menu items to page through the list of ARs. You can also use the Previous and Next tool bar icons or type the Ctrl+Left Arrow keys or Ctrl+Right Arrow keys respectively. The total number of ARs to be displayed appears on the status bar at the bottom of the window. If the number of ARs ready for display is too large to be manageable, you can return to the Query window to refine the query criteria and then re-display the ARs.
The Display window allows you to view the status history for each AR. The status history shows the progress that has been made since the AR was submitted. Select Show Status History from the Actions menu (or type Ctrl+H) to view the status history.
You can trigger active links set up by the AR System administrator from within the Display window. However, since the screen is read-only, the Set Fields operation of active links will not be performed.
Note: You cannot change information in the Display window. To modify an AR, you must use the Modify Individual or Modify All operation.

On the Display and Modify Individual windows, the diary symbol appears different when the diary field contains information. The pages in the diary symbol appear to contain text. This way, you can tell at a glance if the field already contains information.
To display existing diary entries for a Diary field, use the mouse (or left button) to select the diary symbol to the right of the field.
