The Delete Panel Group (DLTPNLGRP) command removes the specified panel group from the system.

Restrictions:

• You must have object existence (*OBJEXIST) authority for the panel group, and use (*USE) authority for the library where the panel group is located.

Parameters

Keyword	Description	Choices	Notes
PNLGRP	Panel group	Qualified object name	Required, Positional 1
	Qualifier 1: Panel group	Generic name, name
	Qualifier 2: Library	Name, *LIBL, *CURLIB, *USRLIBL, *ALL, *ALLUSR

Panel group (PNLGRP)

Specifies the panel group or panel groups to be deleted.

This is a required parameter.

Qualifier 1: Panel group

generic-name

Specify the generic name of the panel groups to be deleted. A generic name is a character string that contains one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*). If a generic name is specified, all panel groups that have names with the same prefix as the generic panel group name are deleted.

name

Specify the name of the panel group to be deleted.

Qualifier 2: Library

*LIBL

All libraries in the library list for the current thread are searched until the first match is found.

*CURLIB

The current library for the thread is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the thread, the QGPL library is searched.

*USRLIBL

If a current library entry exists in the library list for the current thread, the current library and the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched. If there is no current library entry, only the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched.

*ALLUSR

All user libraries are searched. All libraries with names that do not begin with the letter Q are searched except for the following:

#CGULIB     #DSULIB     #SEULIB
#COBLIB     #RPGLIB
#DFULIB     #SDALIB

Although the following Qxxx libraries are provided by IBM, they typically contain user data that changes frequently. Therefore, these libraries are considered user libraries and are also searched:

QDSNX       QRCLxxxxx   QUSRIJS     QUSRVxRxMx
QGPL        QSRVAGT     QUSRINFSKR
QGPL38      QSYS2       QUSRNOTES
QMGTC       QSYS2xxxxx  QUSROND
QMGTC2      QS36F       QUSRPOSGS
QMPGDATA    QUSER38     QUSRPOSSA
QMQMDATA    QUSRADSM    QUSRPYMSVR
QMQMPROC    QUSRBRM     QUSRRDARS
QPFRDATA    QUSRDIRCL   QUSRSYS
QRCL        QUSRDIRDB   QUSRVI

1. 'xxxxx' is the number of a primary auxiliary storage pool (ASP).
2. A different library name, in the format QUSRVxRxMx, can be created by the user for each previous release supported by IBM to contain any user commands to be compiled in a CL program for the previous release. For the QUSRVxRxMx user library, VxRxMx is the version, release, and modification level of a previous release that IBM continues to support.

*ALL

All libraries in the system, including QSYS, are searched.

name

Specify the name of the library to be searched.

Examples

DLTPNLGRP   PNLGRP(*CURLIB/AR*)

This command deletes all panel groups with names that contain the AR prefix (for example, ARINV, ARREC, ARPERS) from the library listed as the current library.
