Variables in panel definitions
Some panel definition keywords (such as HEADER, TRAILER,
QUERY, ACTION) allow the use of variables. The enhanced 3270 user interface supports both
system and user-defined variables.
Variable representation enhanced 3270 user interface supports the standard z/OS variable format: &varname System variables enhanced 3270 user interface supports the use of both ISPF and OMEGAMON-specific system variables. These variables are discovered automatically. User-defined variables enhanced 3270 user interface supports the use of user-defined variables. Variables can be created and set anywhere in a workspace definition using a SET statement. In addition, columns names specified using the KEYCOLS keyword in a previously invoked workspace can be used as variables in subsequent panels, without using a SET statement.
