The common File Manager Base function has one or two primary data sets, and one or two
templates depending on the function. You can define a reference member or any member to provide data sets names in the
following format: DSN1(Member) Template1(member) DSN2(Member) Template2(Member)
These are four data sets names with
optional member names. Use a dash (-) as a place holder where a data set name is not provided. The data set names and member
names can be generic.
Example:
Edit a reference member with the following data
sets:
FMN .FROM.PANELS - FMN .TO.PANELS -
Place the cursor on FMN .FROM.PANELS anywhere in the data set name and
press F4 .
