DB2 graphic QMF Version 8

Operating from the Report List panel

If you specify a linear procedure as input to the generation process, when the input specification phase completes, Program Generator produces a list of the reports that confirms that the objects referenced in the reports exist in exported format in the data set specified for that object.

Report List panel

The Report List panel displays one row for each report in the Report List. Each row lists the query name, the form name, and a set of input fields that control the generation process for that report. The rest of the generation process is controlled from this panel, based on the settings of these input fields.

If you press Enter (without entering a command), the action flags will be processed. These flags determine which panels will be displayed next. The Report List panel will not be displayed again until all of the flags have been processed, or until an error is encountered in processing the flags.

If you press PF3, the action flags will be ignored and you will return to the Generate Programs panel.

If you press PF7 or PF8, the panel will scroll backward or forward.

If you type NOCONF and press Enter, the value of the Confirm Exports? flag on the Set Default Parameters panel will be set to N.

If you type CONF and press Enter, the value of the Confirm Exports? flag on the Set Default Parameters panel will be set to Y.

If you type STOPQMF and press Enter, the QMF session that was started to issue export commands, will be terminated. This command has no effect when Program Generator was started from within a QMF session.

If you type EDIT <num> and press Enter, where <num> is a valid report row number, you will edit the previously generated program for that report row. If you type EDIT PROC and press Enter, you will edit the previously generated proc program.

If you type REGISTER <num> and press Enter, where <num> is a valid report row number, you will proceed to the Register Programs panel with initial values set for registering the program in that report row. If you type REGISTER PROC and press Enter, you proceed to the Register Programs panel with initial values set for registering the proc program.

If you type COMPILE <num> and press Enter, where <num> is a valid report row number, you proceed to the Compile Programs panel with initial values set for preparing the program in that report row. If you type COMPILE PROC and press Enter, you will proceed to the Compile Programs panel with initial values set for preparing the proc program. See "Preparing programs" for information on the Compile Programs option.

If you type RUN <num> and press Enter, where <num> is a valid report row number, you proceed to the Run Programs panel with initial values set for running the program in that report row.

If you type RUN PROC and press Enter, you proceed to the Run Programs panel with initial values set for running the proc program. See "Running programs" for information on the Run Programs option.

The fields on the panel are:

Browse Procedure?
Enter Y to browse the input procedure. If you enter N, you will not browse the input procedure.
Generate Proc Program?
Enter Y to proceed to the Proc Program Generation Options panel to generate a program for the procedure. If you enter N, no action will be taken. You must generate programs for each report in the procedure before you can generate the proc program.
Review Query
Enter B to browse the input query, E to edit the input query, or N to do neither.
Edit Vars
Enter Y to proceed to the Edit Variables panel. If you enter N, no action will be taken.
Generate Program
Enter Y to proceed to the Generation Options panel, and to generate a program for this report. If you enter N, no action will be taken.
