Edit an Element in an Array Field

There are several techniques you can use to change the value of an element:

• Double-click on an element. This only applies to array fields that can be browsed, such as array fields that require you to specify an OPC tag or choose an Area of Interest.
• Select a single element and then press the Enter key. This only applies to array fields that can be browsed.
• Right-click (or press the Application key) to display a context-sensitive menu, and then select Browse. This only applies to array fields that can be browsed.
• Select a single element and then pause. Select the element again and pause again.
• Select a single element and press F2. (If multiple elements are selected, pressing F2 will allow you to edit the first selected element).

If it is possible to browse for a value, editing the element will display its associated browse window. You can use the browse window to choose a different value. However, if you prefer to enter a value manually, you can still use both the ‘select and pause’ and ‘F2’ techniques to edit the value. You can then enter or paste the required value.

If the array field does not provide access to a browse window, editing the element will only allow you to change the value manually. You will need to enter a valid value.
