- Template usage
- The LOAD Utility: “To” template panel provides four
options for template processing:
- 1. Above
- Requires that you enter the name of a template in the To Template section of the panel.
- 2. Previous
- Uses the last (previously used) template for this table.
- 3. Generate from table
- Generates a template based on the information in the Db2® catalog for the specified table. This is the default setting. If you have specified a data set name in the To Template section of the panel, it is ignored. FM/Db2 generates the required template in memory.
- 4. Generate/Replace
- Generates a template based on the information in the Db2® catalog for the specified table, and saves this information in the data set specified in the To Template section of the panel. If the template already exists, it is replaced and any prior customization is lost.
You can select the following options by entering a ⁄ or an “A”:
- Edit load utility options
