USE REFRESH IN COLLECT MODE 

Suppose you have typed most or all of the data in a form when you realize
that the data is all wrong.  In this case, rather than clearing the data
by hand or typing over it, it is simpler to reset the form to its initial
values by pressing REFRESH.

Action 

Type some of the data into the form for Record #2, such as the example
shown in Figure 4-14.  Now, press REFRESH.

This causes the entire terminal screen to be cleared.  Then the form is
painted on the screen again with no data except initial values in any of
the fields.  The record number is still Record #2.

Action 

Type the data exactly as shown in Figure 4-14.  Press ENTER.
