Instructions For Defining Dialogs

You use ADSC to define dialogs. To define a skeleton dialog, you invoke ADSC, specify basic information about the dialog, and then create a load module for the dialog.

Steps

In this chapter, you will define skeleton versions of dialogs XXXDADD and XXXDUPD by using ADSC. You will:

  1. Invoke ADSC.
  2. Define the dialog XXXDADD.
  3. Name the associated map.
  4. Create a load module for the dialog.
  5. Define and compile dialog XXXDUPD.

After you compile dialogs XXXDADD and XXXDUPD, you can exit from ADSC.

Dialogs for the Department Application

The following table lists specifications for defining skeleton dialogs XXXDADD and XXXDUPD. If you need additional information at any time about the use of ADSC, see Using ADSC.
