Syntax Rules

When specifying initialization parameters, do the following:

1. Specify one initialization parameter for each record.
2. Do not insert blank spaces between the initialization parameter and the equal sign or between the equal sign and the parameter value. The following is an example of a valid statement:

   ARCH1=DIRECT
   

3. Continue an initialization parameter statement onto the next record by doing one of the following:
   • Move the statement so that its last character extends past column 71.

     In this case, CA Deliver looks for the remainder of the statement in column 1 of the next record.

   • Insert a comma at the end of the record to be continued and enter the remainder of the statement in the next record.

     Leading blanks in the next record are ignored.
