Read syntax diagramSkip visual syntax diagramEXEC ' qqq.SDFSEXEC(DFSAPPL)' HLQ( imshlq) ALTRESL('' myhlq.data_set_name1'','' myhlq.data_set_name2'')
qqq
High-level qualifiers of the IMS REXX data set.
DFSAPPL
REXX EXEC for starting the IMS Application menu.
imshlq
The high-level qualifier of the IMS data sets.
ALTRESL( ' 'myhlq.data_set_ name1' ' )
Keyword that specifies a list of data sets that contain load modules.

myhlq.data_set_name1 is the fully qualified name of the data set that contains the load modules. If you specify the ALTRESL parameter, you should include the SDFSRESL data set in the list of data set names. If you do not specify the ALTRESL parameter, imshlq.SDFSRESL is used as the ISPLLIB data set.

If you need to specify more than one data set, separate the names with a comma.

Because both the EXEC command and data set names use single quotation marks as punctuation characters, use two adjacent single quotation marks when you specify a data set name within the EXEC parameter string.
