Hi,
This is the same for me. The only way around I can find is to use a
green-on-black command line, type the command, prompt it, et al.
Or use the internet:
<
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/cl/[command
].htm>, (e.g.
<
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/cl/crtpf.ht
m>) You can change the v5r4 part to whatever version you need, but it
must be lowercase.
It looks to me like the CL part of the help files that come with WDSC
are incomplete. Is that right?
Best regards,
Paul

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Incomplete CL help text
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?
