This program displays a Dictionary-IV view from Basic. It fills in VIEW$ with the view name, sort number, cursor mode and change switches, then calls OO3A, the method behind CONNECT VIEW.

- The example uses view IAVCUST from the UT sample library that ships with IDOL-IV.
- Some comments in the code mention SCREEN$, a screen name and CONNECT SCREEN. They were carried over from the screen example: the program uses VIEW$ and calls OO3A, which runs CONNECT VIEW.
