SELECTION-SCREEN INCLUDE PARAMETERS

Syntax

SELECTION-SCREEN INCLUDE PARAMETERS para
                                    [OBLIGATORY [OFF]]
                                    [MODIF ID modid]
                                    [ID id].

Effect

The PARAMETERS addition creates the screen elements for the parameter para on the current selection screen. You must specify a parameter for para that has already been declared with a PARAMETERS statement on a previous selection screen. All the properties of the parameter are copied from the original selection screen.

The additions OBLIGATORY and MODIF ID have the same meaning as in the PARAMETERS statement and overwrite the corresponding properties copied from the original selection screen. If the parameter on the original selection screen is declared with an OBLIGATORY addition, this property can be deactivated on the current selection screen by specifying OFF.

The ID addition can only be used in a selection include for a logical database.

Note

The INCLUDE addition in this variant ensures that the global variable para can be filled with values by several selection screens at the same time.
