Usage

Defaults Determined by SET OPTIONS

DISPLAY and PUNCH default options are determined by the SET OPTIONS statement.

Security Enforcement

If either the compiler or the entity being displayed or punched is secured, the compiler rejects the operation unless the user issuing the statement holds the necessary authority. The user issuing the statement is established by:

• The PREPARED BY clause of the DISPLAY/PUNCH statement
• The user-specification in the SET OPTIONS statement
• The user identified in a compiler SIGNON statement
• The user known to the runtime environment in which the compiler is executing

One WITH Clause Per DISPLAY/PUNCH

Only one WITH clause is permitted per DISPLAY/PUNCH operation; if you specify more than one, the compiler applies only the options specified in the last one. To add additional options, use the ALSO WITH option.
