UP primary command — scroll data backward
Use the UP primary command to scroll backward toward the top of
data.
- Syntax
UP [ amount ]
- Parameter
- amount
- Specifies one of the following scroll amounts:
- A number from 1 through 9999, representing the number of lines to be scrolled
- PAGE or P, indicating that a full screen should be scrolled
- HALF or H, indicating that a half-screen should be scrolled
- CSR or C, indicating that the screen should be scrolled to the line on which the cursor resides
- MAX or M, indicating that the screen should be scrolled to the top
- DATA or D, indicating that the screen should be scrolled a page minus one line
If you do not specify an amount, IPCS uses the amount in the SCROLL amount field in the upper right corner of the screen.
- Usage notes
- UP can be used on all IPCS dialog panels that display the SCROLL amount field.
- The scroll amount is typically displayed on the screen, following the command/option field. You can change the scroll amount by typing over the SCROLL amount field with a new amount. The new scroll amount will remain effective (except MAX or M) until you change it or until you begin a new function.
- You can temporarily override the scroll amount, without changing
the SCROLL amount field, by:
- Typing an amount as part of the scroll command and pressing the ENTER key
- Typing a scroll amount in the command/option field, and then pressing PF7 or PF19
- The IPCS-defined PF keys 7 and 19 invoke the UP primary command.
- Example: Scroll using the MAX operand.
- Action:
COMMAND ===> up max or COMMAND ===> up m
- Result
The panel is scrolled to the top of the data.
