Invoking File Manager panels from outside File Manager
File Manager panels can also be invoked directly
from any REXX procedure, TSO clist or ISPF Command line. To do this, enter the
function name for the required File Manager panel
(as listed in the “Equivalent function” column in
Summary of File Manager panels).
This method of invoking File Manager causes ISPF
to display a panel for the specific function allowing you to enter the values
required for function processing.
Figure 1. Syntax
Notes:
1 The data_set_name parameter is
only allowed for the DSV function, to invoke View (option 1), and
the DSE function, to invoke Edit (option 2).
For example, from any ISPF Command line, you can enter the following command
to display the File Manager Print Utility (option 3.2)
panel:
FILEMGR DSP
If you specify a valid data set name after DSV (Data Set View)
or DSE (Data Set Edit), File Manager:
Bypasses the entry panel (where you would normally specify the
data set name and other options, such as the name of a stored template
you might wish to use when displaying the data set).
Goes directly to viewing or editing the specified data set.
