<h1 class="topictitle1">Use QCMDEXC with prompting in CL procedures and programs</h1>
|
|
<div><p>The QCMDEXC program may be used to call the prompter. </p>
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>This use of QCMDEXC with prompting in CL procedures and programs
|
|
allows you to alter all values on the command except the command name itself.
|
|
This is more flexible than direct use of the prompter, where you can only
|
|
enter values not specified in the source (see previous section). If the prompter
|
|
is called directly with a command such as: </p>
|
|
<pre>?OVRDBF FILE(FILEX)</pre>
|
|
<p>you can specify a value for any parameter except
|
|
FILE. However, if the command is called during processing of a program using
|
|
the QCMDEXC program, such as in the following example, you can specify a value
|
|
for any parameter, including FILE. In this example, FILEX is the default.:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>CALL QCMDEXC PARM('?OVRDBF FILE(FILEX)' 19)</pre>
|
|
<p>Prompting with modifiable specified values may also be accomplished
|
|
using selective prompting as described earlier in this chapter. However, each
|
|
keyword must be explicitly selected. The prompter is called directly with
|
|
a command such as: </p>
|
|
<pre>OVRDBF ??FILE(FILEX) ??TOFILE(*N) ??MBR(*N)</pre>
