<fieldset><h1>Chapter 7: Text Viewer</h1></fieldset>
<p>
Datasets with data of type &ldquo;String&rdquo; are displayed in a Text 
Viewer window. The Text Viewer provides a scroller for a large string 
dataset. Users can scroll up or down and left or right, as needed, to view 
the full content of the dataset.</p>

<p>
TextView shows the text of a one-dimension text dataset in rows of text areas. 
For multiple-dimension datasets, you can select one dimension to display 
using the &ldquo;Open As&rdquo; command from the TreeView. The following 
figure shows that two rows of 1-D text
(dim[0] = 2) are displayed in separate text areas.</p>

<p>
You can modify the text content by typing new text in the text area. The modified
text is chopped based on the maximum length of the string dataset. A string dataset of variable length is not supported.</p>
