What You Can Do

You can retrieve a copy of your data table and print a listing or a report based on the table contents. The table can also be viewed or modified with ASF.

How to Do It

A data table is retrieved by coding the following statements:

  1. An INPUT parameter that specifies at least the following information:
    1. The name of the table being copied (TABLE=)
    2. The copy function (TYPE=COPY)
    3. A valid user ID (USER=)

      If you are not the table owner, you must have authorization to access the table.

    4. A valid password (PW=)
    5. The catalog (dictionary) in which the table definition resides (CATALOG=)
