Change Formats

Use the Format (PF9) command to shift between the Display, Field, and Hex formats. Although parameters are not required, you can specify Format xxx, replacing xxx with one of the following:

Display

Immediately shifts to Display format

Field

Immediately shifts to Field format

Hex

Immediately shifts to Hex format

NODisplay

Disables Display format

NOField

Disables Field format

NOHex

Disables Hex format

For example, Format F displays the screen in field format.

Note: If the format being disabled is the one currently in use, CA Verify for VTAM automatically switches to the next available format. If the current format is the only one enabled, CA Verify for VTAM displays an error message and does not alter the display.
