<h1 class="topictitle1">Define a simple list</h1>
<div><p>A simple list can accept one or more values of the type specified
by the parameter. </p>
<div class="section"> <p>For example, if the parameter is for the user name, a simple
list means that more than one user name can be specified on that parameter.</p>
<pre>USER(JONES SMITH MILLER)</pre>
<p>If a parameter's value is a simple list, you specify the maximum
number of elements the list can accept using the MAX parameter on the PARM
statement. For a simple list, no command definition statements other than
the PARM statement need be specified.</p>
<p>The following example defines
a parameter USER for which the display station user can specify up to five
user names (a simple list). </p>
<pre>PARM KWD(USER) TYPE(*NAME) LEN(10) MIN(0) MAX(5) +
SPCVAL(*ALL) DFT(*ALL)</pre>
<p>The parameter is an optional parameter as specified by MIN(0)
and the default value is *ALL as specified by DFT(*ALL).</p>
<p>When the elements
in a simple list are passed to the command processing program, the format
varies depending on whether you are using CL or HLL, or REXX. </p>
