Positional parameters

Positional parameters are location specific and determined by their position in relation to other parameters. You enter positional parameters on the COMMAND line in a specific order with a view name.

You can enter positional parameters as follows: viewName parm1 parm2 parm3.

To determine which positional parameters you can use in a view, use either of the following actions to access online Help:

  1. Enter HELP with the view name, and select the positional parameters topic.
  2. Select the view name from the window information line with your cursor, press the Help (PF1) key, and , select the positional parameters topic.

You must enter the parameters in the sequence shown in the online Help. You must use an asterisk (*) as a placeholder for each parameter that you are not using.
