i just started working at a d3 shop after working with U2 for years. I am very surprised that D3 does not have the U2 AE editor. That AE editor makes it a breeze to view and modify VM and SVM data. I do not understand why it not available. It is just a special text editor.​

There are some useful tips around for editing in D3, MvB, Reality, and so on ...

For VM, SV and so on, my tip is Control [ and Control \\

Try in the editor the ^ key by itself, and view your results (hope that one still works)

Enjoy D3, it's Great and Ooooh so Fast

hi,

under D3, I suggest you learn update processor (u) really powerfull editor, you can associate dict name to edit record / fields with constraint. 

regards.
