In SEU, you can page left and right with F19 and F20, but if you're at V3R1, try F11 instead. F11 makes paging left and right easier by toggling between the left side and the right side of the source member; you need only to use one function key, and the key doesn't require you to use the Shift key.

If you browse a spool file and press F11, the browser folds the lines in the spool file.

Have you ever been in the middle of changes and tried to get out of SEU only to be told that the "Member contains syntax errors" on the exit screen? SEU will default the exit screen to return you to editing. If you made a lot of changes in a big source file, though, you don't want to roll through all the source to find the line in error. To solve the problem, just enter "*ERR" at the SEU ==> prompt and press F16. SEU will find the line in error for you.
