PANEL Variables

The implicitly defined PANEL variables that can be used by the REXX program follow.

PAN.AID
Attention identifier that last caused panel input.
ENTER   ENTER
CLEAR   CLEAR
CLRP    CLEAR PARTITION
PEN     SELECTOR PEN
OPID    OPERATOR ID
MSRE    MAGNETIC READER
STRF    STRUCTURE FIELD
TRIG    TRIGGER

PAN.CURS
Position of cursor in last panel input. This is in the form of row column separated by a blank. For example, '10 5' would be row 10 and column 5. The row and column values are absolute to the start of the screen and are unaffected by the POSITION() keyword.
PAN.CNAM
REXX variable name (field ID) associated with the cursor position. If the field has no associated variable then PAN_CNAM is not updated.

The PANEL error related variables follow.

PAN.REA
Reason code if warning or error occurs. REXX return code, RC, should be examined first. If the RC is 10, PAN.REA contains state codes and input codes to help in error determination. See section State Codes and Input Codes for more information.
PAN.LOC
Internal location code. Three to four-digit number used by IBM support. If the REXX variable RC contains the value 10, the PAN.LOC should be used in conjunction with PAN.REA for error determination.
PAN.LINE
Line number in the source panel definition where an error was detected, if error occurred during panel object generation.
