Workpad Option

The CA IDMS DME Workpad provides a null edit session in which you can enter commands to be executed using either IDD, OCF, SYSGEN, SSC, and SCHEMA compilers, as well as from within an edit session. The Workpad may be executed from within an edit session as well as from the other CA IDMS DME screens.

To display the Workpad screen from the CA IDMS DME Main Menu screen:

1. Type W (indicating Workpad) in the OPTION field.
2. Press the Enter key.

The Workpad screen is displayed.
