Editing Mission Definitions in the IOA Edit Environment

Mission definition parameters can be edited (moved, copied, deleted, repeated) by performing IOA line editing commands, similar to standard ISPF line commands, from within the IOA Edit environment.

The Edit environment in a Mission Definition screen is accessed by typing EDIT in the COMMAND field and pressing Enter.

A 2-character line editing command field, marked by underscores, is displayed for each line on the screen.

Editing commands are typed directly onto these underscores.

Incorrectly specified line editing commands can be corrected by typing over them correctly. Line editing commands can be deleted by blanking them out or by specifying the RESET command in the COMMAND field.

Specified line editing commands are processed when Enter is pressed.

Control-V performs automatic syntax checking to ensure that the mission definition is syntactically correct after editing. If an edit invalidates the mission definition, a message is displayed at the top of the screen and the edit is not performed. For editing mission definitions, see "Maintaining Valid Mission Definitions" in this appendix for guidelines and recommendations.

All operations available in a Mission Definition screen can be performed while in the Edit environment (for example, parameter values can be changed, the mission can be saved, and the screen exited).

To exit the Edit environment, retype EDIT in the COMMAND field and press Enter. Line editing command fields are removed from the display.

Line editing commands can be performed on the following:
