Symbols: Not Equals: Ever wondered how to get that elusive NOT EQUAL TO or Not Sign ' ' symbol in ISPF on Mainframe?
Resolution: Hold down the ALT key and press ^ or 6. You remember it NOW, I know. PIPE or Concatenation: PIPE or Concatenation: I guess you are writing a DB2 query and want to concatenate your columns. So how do you type that pipe character 'ιι'?
Resolution: Hold down the ALT key and press ~ or `.
Excellent Handy Tips: Line Command to Insert n Lines: Do you need to insert/delete/exclude n number of lines at the press of a function key? How would you pass a command I10, I20 or Inn lines to the TSO/ISPF editor? How can you customize your keys so that it automatically does this for you?
Resolution: Set your function key, say, F4 to insert 15 lines. Open the KEYS dialog and type in :I15 in the command space. Yes, a COLON would make the ISPF understand that it is a line command. SDSF Auto refresh or Auto Update: I just found out. I too used to keep pressing ENTER in SDSF ST after submitting a job to refresh the screen and later wrote a macro to do it for me but it is not needed. You have a cool inbuilt trick to do it for now. Type in '&3' ENTER You will get the message AUTO UPDATE IN 3 SECONDS. Press Attention (Esc) to stop the update. |
