Syntax

Length:
The length of the subparameters passed must not exceed 100 characters:
For example, PARM='P1,123,MT5' is received by the program as P1,123,MT5. Commas: When you code more than one subparameter, separate the subparameters by commas and enclose the subparameters in parentheses or apostrophes. For example, PARM=(P1,123,MT5) or PARM='P1,123,MT5'. Special characters and blanks: When a subparameter contains special characters or blanks, enclose it in apostrophes and the other subparameters in parentheses, or enclose all the subparameters in apostrophes. For example, PARM=(P50,'12+80') or PARM='P50,12+80'. Code each apostrophe and ampersand that is part of the subparameter as two consecutive apostrophes or ampersands. For example, code 3462&5 as PARM='3462&&5'. However, if a subparameter contains a symbolic parameter, code a single ampersand. You can code the symbolic parameter in apostrophes. Continuation
onto another statement: Enclose the subparameters in parentheses.
End each statement with a comma after a subparameter. For example:
Do not code an apostrophe in column 71; see Continuing parameter fields enclosed in apostrophes if you need more information. |
