Deleting data in scrollable input fields

If you want to delete all the data in a field that is displayed as a scrollable input field, take care to ensure that you do, in fact, delete all the data (and not just the displayed data).

If you use the field delete key combination to delete data, File Manager deletes only the data that is currently displayed. If the field contains more data than is displayed, the undisplayed data is left undeleted.

Before deleting data in a scrollable input field, first display the entire contents of the field by pressing the Expand function key (F4) or entering the EXPAND primary command. You can then use the field delete key combination to delete all data in the field at once.
