Selecting the browse input data set

Since you entered an asterisk pattern character as part of the data set name in the Dataset name field on the Browse - Dataset Specification screen, File-AID displays a list of data sets that match the pattern you specified. Select the dataset you want to use from this list.

Steps:

  1. Enter the S (select) line command next to the dataset userid.FASAMP.EMPMAST.
    In the following figure, userid is shown as USERID9. Your TSO ID should appear on your list.
  2. Press Enter. File-AID displays the File-AID Selection Criteria Menu screen as shown in Specifying-temporary-selection-criteria-to-browse-a-data-file.
