Because of modern security concerns, we have had to mask the complete id in screens, but a workaround will let you view the id when necessary.  Look at the id in the "master" files.  Example here is STUBAL.

 

Sort STUBAL and select .lastname of Landry-Gates.

Print STUBAL and print only the .studentid/mask=@@@@@@@@@ to see the entire id.
