Type an option next to a specific group and press Enter. You can type option numbers next to more than one group at a time. This allows you to do more than one task at a time. If you see ‘More...' in the lower right corner of your display, there is more information to be listed. Press the Page Down (Roll Up) key to move toward the end of the location groups. Press the Page Up (Roll Down) key to move toward the beginning of the location groups.
