Options
- UNProtect
- specifies that the field is not protected from operator input.
- PRotect
- specifies that the field is protected from operator input.
- SKip
- specifies a protected field with the auto-skip feature. Operator
entering a character in the last position of the previous unprotected
field causes the cursor to skip over this field.
- NORmal
- specifies that the field is not highlighted.
- BRight
- specifies that the field is highlighted.
- INVisible
- specifies that the field is invisible.
- GReen
- RED
- BLUe
- TUrquoise
- WHite
- YEllow
- PInk
- DEfcolor
- are the choices for the color.
Note: - When you do not specify a default color, the color is based on
the field type and intensity values: protect/normal displays blue,
protect/bright displays white, unprotect/normal displays green, and
unprotect/bright displays red.
- If any field on a panel has explicitly specified a color (including
DEFCOLOR), all bright fields with DEFCOLOR or no color specified are
displayed white and all normal fields with DEFCOLOR or no color specified
are displayed green. This is a 3270 hardware limitation and not the
panel facility.
- BLInk
- specifies that the field blinks.
- REVerse
- specifies that the field is in reverse video.
- UNDerline
- specifies that the field is underlined.
- NOJustify
- specifies that no justification is done (left justified but
blanks are not stripped).
- LEft
- specifies that the field is left justified (leading blanks will
be stripped).
- RIght
- specifies that the field is right justified (trailing blanks
will be stripped).
- PAd()
- specified only in context of fields having variables. In an
unprotected field the pad character fills the character positions
that are not occupied by a variable value. In a protected field,
the pad character is similar but the scope of the fill area is not
the whole field as in the unprotected field. It is bound by where
the variable starts, within the protected field to either the end
of the field or the start of the next variable or text.
- NULls
- specifies that a field will be padded with the null character.
- BLanks
- specifies that a field will be padded with blanks.
- char
- specifies a single character to be used to pad a field.
- NUMeric
- specifies a field is numeric (unprotected field only).
- CUrsor
- specifies that the cursor is positioned at the beginning of
this field. If multiple cursor fields are defined, then the last
one defined contains the cursor. The cursor is placed in the top
left corner if a cursor field is not defined.
- MDT
- (specified for SEND and CONVERSE only) sets the modify bit tag
for all input fields on the panel.
