When editing a CL and accessing help (pressing F1) on a command or a
command parameter, I receive only part of the help text that would be
available on a green screen.
For example, I was working with a routine where I needed to check the
existence of an object. So, I typed in the command CHKOBJ
OBJ(&DESTLIB/&TOOBJ) OBJTYP(&OBJTYPE) and I wanted to monitor for the
message when the object wasn't found. I couldn't remember the message off
the top of my head, so I pressed F1 to get help. I got help, but it
included only the basic table listing the parameters, their acceptable
values, and a little textual description. That's worthless--I get that
much off the prompt. There are links to Examples, Messages, etc., but the
help sections for these are empty.
I'm using WDSC Version 7 with the latest patches and we're on V5R3. Anyone
have any ideas how to get the rest of the detail in the help?
