Modify the Command Table

The BMC Catalog Manager Command Table, ACTCOMND, must contain appropriate entries for the BR, BRS, ED, and EDS commands. (BR and ED display the data. BRS and EDS display a prompt for selection criteria prior to the data.) Review the $xxxCOMD member in the BMC install library which is used to assemble and link ACTCOMND, and modify these entries if necessary.

The entries for the commands should match the following:

*BROWSE TB OR VW (ACCESS DB2 TABLE/VIEW BROWSE)
       $ACTCMD BR,#BR,HELP=FOP7BB,LOAD=FOPD2BMC,CLIST=YES,         X
             OBJECTS=(TB+VW+SY),ADDOBJ=(AL)
*BROWSE TB OR VW (ACCESS DB2 TABLE/VIEW BROWSE)
       $ACTCMD BRS,#BRS,HELP=FOP7BC,LOAD=FOPD2BMC,CLIST=YES,       X
             OBJECTS=(TB+VW+SY),ADDOBJ=(AL)
*EDIT TB OR VW (ADB2 TABLE EDIT)
       $ACTCMD ED,#ED,HELP=FOP7BE,LOAD=FOPD2BMC,CLIST=YES,         X
            OBJECTS=(TB+VW+SY),ADDOBJ=(AL)
*EDIT TB OR VW (ADB2 TABLE EDIT)
         $ACTCMD EDS,#EDS,HELP=FOP7BD,LOAD=FOPD2BMC,CLIST=YES,     X
              OBJECTS=(TB+VW+SY),ADDOBJ=(AL)

If you are creating these entries manually, be sure to include the continuation indicator in column 72.

If your version of the Catalog Manager Command Table does not include these entries, insert them into the table in alphabetical order by command name. Ensure that the $ACTCEQU copy member contains equates for the #BR, #BRS, #ED, and #EDS command numbers or replace these symbols with the appropriate numeric constants before assembling. (See member FOP$BMCO in the Optim™ sample library for sample entries.)

Assemble and linkedit the updated $xxxCOMD member.

In addition to identifying the commands in the member FOP$BMCO, you need to perform the following two steps to use the interface.

Ensure that the following CLISTs are in the CLIST library, which is accessible when the Catalog Manager is running.
```
FOPD2BMC
FOP
FOPCUST 
FOPAM00   
FOPGPLAN
```
If these CLISTs are not accessible, copy them to the appropriate CLIST library.

Copy the help panels, FOP7BB, FOP7BC, FOP7BD, and FOP7BE from the panel library into the Catalog Manager panel library. Depending on the release of the Catalog Manager that you are using, these may already be present.

Once these steps are completed, the interface is available. Any time a list of tables, views, synonyms, or aliases is displayed by the Catalog Manager, you can enter BR, BRS, ED, or EDS as line commands to browse or edit the selected object.
