The Display Selection menu is divided into four basic sections:

1 A command line supporting the commands assigned to PF keys.

2 An informational section containing details about the dump, from program name and abend code to the user ID, applid, terminal, and task. Field definitions are provided in online help (PF1).

3 A display tree from which you can access detailed informational displays that provides data about the dump and the error. The detailed informational displays are grouped into the following categories: Formatted Displays, Task Areas, Database Areas, Language Areas, and CICS System Areas.

Note: An asterisk (*) next to an item or a group name means that the particular display or group of displays is unavailable for the program. For instance, if the abended program does not reference any files, the Files Accessed display in the Formatted Displays group shows an asterisk to indicate its unavailability.

4 A section showing the PF key assignments for this screen.
