The Display function on the List Horizon View window lets you temporarily control what data is listed for each view. The List Horizon View window displays a set of default columns that display for each view. (For example, Horizon can display a description of each view, the table each view is built on, the title of the window that a view creates, and so forth. You can then sort the list by one of the displayed fields and quickly locate the view that you need.)
Since each view refers to a unique window, displaying the window title associated with each view is a useful method for finding the one that you need.
To find a view by changing the list view display
