<h1 class="topictitle1">Example: Define a parameter</h1>
<div><p>This example shows how to define a parameter used in calling an
application.</p>
<div class="section"> <p>The following example defines a parameter OETYPE for a command
to call an order entry application. </p>
<pre>PARM KWD(OETYPE) TYPE(*CHAR) RSTD(*YES) +
VALUES(DAILY WEEKLY MONTHLY) MIN(1) +
PROMPT('Type of order entry:')</pre>
<p>The OETYPE parameter is required (MIN parameter
is 1) and its value is restricted (RSTD parameter is *YES) to the values DAILY,
WEEKLY, or MONTHLY. The PROMPT parameter contains the prompt text for the
parameter. Since no LEN keyword is specified and TYPE(*CHAR) is defined, a
length of 32 is the default.</p>
