EXPERT form

After SDF has displayed the information on the function keys, the dialog is resumed as follows:

(1)	The SHOW-FILE-ATTRIBUTES command calls up the default information (size and name) on all ISAM files (“file-struc=i”) whose name begins with “test.example.”.
(2)	The system displays the required information.
(3)	The SHOW-FILE-ATTRIBUTES command calls up the default information (size and name) on all ISAM and SAM files (“file-struc=(i,s)”) whose name begins with“test.example.”. The FILE-STRUCTURE operand is assigned two values, “(i,s)”, which are enclosed in parentheses (list input). The file name “test,example.” is incorrect (comma instead of period).
(4)	SDF interprets “example.” as a value for the INFORMATION operand (input as second positional operand) and rejects it as an incorrect entry.

(5)	In the EXPERT form SDF does not conduct a correction dialog and instead requests command input. The user requests help information on the INFORMATION operand by means of entering a question mark instead of the operand value. The parentheses following the word *PARAMETERS indicate that *PARAMETERS initiates a structure.
(6)	The incorrect command entered in step 3 is entered correctly.
(7)	The system displays the required information.
(8)	The MODIFY-SDF-OPTIONS command causes a switch to the NO form of unguided dialog. All the operands of this command are optional and have the default value *UNCHANGED. Consequently only the explicitly specified SDF options, in this case the user guidance form, are modified.
