<div><p>You can prompt the workstation user for input to a CL procedure
|
||
|
|
or program.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>With most CL procedures and programs, the workstation user provides
|
||
|
|
input to the procedure or program by specifying parameter values passed to
|
||
|
|
the procedure or program or by typing into input-capable fields on a display
|
||
|
|
prompt.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can also prompt the workstation user for input to a CL procedure
|
||
|
|
or program in the following ways: </p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>If you enter a ? before the CL command in the CL procedure or program
|
||
|
|
source, the system displays a prompt for the CL command. Parameter values
|
||
|
|
you have already specified in your procedure or program are filled in and
|
||
|
|
cannot be changed by the workstation user.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>If you call the QCMDEXC program and request selective prompting, the system
|
||
|
|
displays a prompt for a CL command, but you need not specify in the CL program
|
||
|
|
source which CL command is to be used at processing time.</li>
