Other Partitioned or Sequential Dataset Names
You can use the following field to specify any partitioned or sequential dataset:
- Name. You can include either a TSO user prefix or user ID as the first level qualifier of the dataset name. If you omit the single quotes and if you have created a TSO user prefix, that prefix is automatically added to the beginning of the dataset name. If you omit the single quotes and if you do not have a TSO user prefix, a prefix cannot be added, and the name is used exactly as it appears.
If you include your user prefix or ID, enclose the dataset name with apostrophes. If you include the apostrophe at the beginning of the dataset name but omit the one at the end, ISPF inserts it for you.
- Volume Serial. Along with a dataset name, you can optionally specify a volume serial. If you do, the system catalog is not used.
- Initial Macro. You can specify an Edit macro to be processed before you begin your sequential dataset or any member of a partitioned dataset. The initial macro enables you to set up a particular environment for the View session you are beginning. If you leave the Initial Macro field blank and your Edit profile includes an initial macro specification, the initial macro from your Edit profile is processed. To suppress the processing of an initial macro in your Edit profile, enter in the Initial Macro field.
- Profile Name. You can specify a profile name to override the default Edit profile.
- Format Name. Contains the name of a format definition, which is used to view or browse a formated dataset.
- Browse Mode. Specifies that you want to browse the dataset using the Browse function. This function is useful for large datasets and datasets that are formatted RECFM=U.
- Confirm Cancel/Move/Replace. Specifies that you want ISPF to display a confirmation panel whenever you issue a Cancel, Move, or Replace command.
- Mixed Mode. Specifies that you want to view or browse unformatted data that contains both EBCDIC and DBCS characters.
