Syntax

<ctrl>+y

Description

moves the cursor left one word in data-entry mode or moves to the previous entry in a remote file.

In text-entry mode, '<ctrl>+y' moves the cursor back one word.

On an indexed attribute, <ctrl>+y goes to the previous sequential index in a remote file and gets the corresponding item into the UP workspace. See 'cruising'.

In order to use a remote index, the index must first be created using the 'create-index' verb. See 'create-index'.

To use a remote index, an index correlative must be present on the input-conversion dictionary. See 'i (index, remote)'.
