Screen Header Lines

Each CA Endevor/DB screen contains standard information in the first two lines. The Main Function Menu screen, below, illustrates this:

CA-E/DB nn.n volser            MAIN FUNCTION MENU             mm/dd/yy  NDVRU000
USER ===> EDBADMIN            DICTNAME ===> SRCNDVR           MODE ===> UPDATE

             3  - LOCK FUNCTIONS
             4  - ENTITY AND ENTITY CHANGE HISTORY
             5  - CCID AND CCID CHANGE HISTORY
             6  - STATUS AND STATUS ASSOCIATIONS

            11  - ENDEVOR/DB SIGNON FUNCTION
            12  - RETURN TO IDMS/DC

The first line includes information as follows:

• Product name and release.
• Volume serial number of the release tape.
• Screen title.
• Current date (mm/dd/yy format).
• Screen number. Each CA Endevor/DB screen number takes the form NDVRxynn, where:
  • x is "M" for a Detail screen; "U" for a menu or List screen. (Detail and List screens are defined below.)
  • y identifies the area of processing: "1-9" for Main Function Menu Options 1-9, "0" for Signon and main menu processing, and "A" for administrative processing (covered in the CA Endevor/DB for CA IDMS Administrator Guide).
  • nn is a sequential number that identifies the screen uniquely: "10," "20," "30," and so forth.

The second line lists the user name, dictionary, and mode under which you are processing (BROWSE or UPDATE), as defined at Signon.
