Default Device Design Formats

A panel design consists of header/footer formats and a variable format that depends on the function type. The panel design for the Edit Horse function, which is an Edit File function type, consists of the following formats.

• The uppermost format contains the header lines that give status information about the user, date, time, and mode (New/Open) of the panel.
• At the bottom of the panel, the footer lines give function key explanations. Any execution time messages are displayed on line 24.
• The middle section of the panel contains the formats that vary depending on the function type. In this case we are using an Edit File function type. It contains two formats,
  • A subfile control format.
  • A subfile record format. The subfile record is the format for a single record that is retrieved from the fields of the specified access path according to the function type.
