For example, if you placed the following statement in your parameter file,

SAY "With updates from Peter June 26"

then the following line might appear in CZAPRINT:

CZA0127I <amihlq>.PARM(CZAPARMS)(6): SAY 'With updates from Peter June 26'

SAY statements might be used in the BMC AMI Datastream and CZASEND Parameter file, in the Fields Definitions files and in CZAJOBLG parameter files (and files included using %INCLUDE from those files; for more information, see INCLUDE-statement).

SAY has no other effect on the operation of BMC AMI Datastream or CZASEND.

SAY

Must be coded exactly as shown.

'anyArbitraryText'
