DB2 graphic QMF Version 8

Confirming exports

If the Confirm Exports? flag on the Set Default Parameters panel is set to Y, the Export Confirmation panel will be displayed before any objects are exported.

Two commands are issued by Program Generator when exporting a query. First, a CONVERT command is issued to ensure that the query is an SQL query (as opposed to a prompted or QBE query), and then an EXPORT command is issued. The CONVERT command converts the specified query and replaces the current query object with its SQL version. This current query is then exported.

Note:
The CONVERT command resets the contents of the current query object.

On the Export Confirmation panel, the command displayed is the effective export command, not the commands which are actually issued. For example, if a query named QUERY1 is exported, the command as displayed on this panel is:

EXPORT QUERY QUERY1 TO ...

while the actual commands issued are:

CONVERT QUERY QUERY1 ...
EXPORT QUERY TO ...

Export Confirmation panel

The Export Confirmation panel is presented below:

Table 7. Export Confirmation
DB2P / DB2PLOCATION -- Export Confirmation --------------------------- 8.1.0
Command ===>
Press ENTER to confirm this export command.
Type CAN or CANCEL or press PF3 to bypass this export command.
 
 
 
About to issue this EXPORT command to QMF:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 
 
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 
 
 
  
 

If you press Enter, the export command will be processed by QMF.

If you press PF3, the export command will be bypassed and the object that was being exported will be assumed to exist in the specified data set and member.

If you type NOCONF and press Enter, the export command will proceed, and the value of the Confirm Exports? flag on the Set Default Parameters panel will be set to N. All subsequent exports will proceed without confirmation.
