HIDE primary command

In Browse, View, and Edit, the HIDE command removes a field from the data display.

A hidden field can be displayed by using the SHOW editor primary command or by using the S prefix command in the template editor.

In the PDSE Workbench and Template Member List panels, the HIDE command hides all input fields, leaving more space to display the member list. When the input fields are hidden, enter HIDE to show them again.

Syntax

Figure 1. Browse, View, and Edit format

1 HIDE
1 fieldref
1 fldname
1 RESET
fieldref
A single field reference (for example, #1), a range (for example, #2-#5), or a list of single field references/ranges separated by spaces (for example, #1 #4 #6-#7). A single field specification is #n; n is a positive integer and cannot exceed the number of fields in the template being processed.
fldname
The name of a field in the template, which is optionally preceded by the pound symbol (#). Use #RESET to avoid any syntactical ambiguity with command keywords.
