This facility allows you to build temporary lists of LANSA system variables and display them on the screen. From these displayed lists system variables you can choose those to include in your export list.
These lists can be built from either all system variables, or only from system variables with a specified generic name.
A displayed list may not fit on one screen. This is indicated by a '+' sign in the lower right of the screen. In such cases use the roll up and roll down keys to scroll backwards and forwards through the displayed list.
The Sel column
System variables already included in the export list are shown with an 'X' beside them. The 'X' cannot be removed. Thus a system variable cannot be removed from the export list by using this facility. Use the option 'Review/Delete Objects Already in the List' to do this.
Enter a 'Y' beside a specific variable, to include it in the export list.
The associated system variable evaluation program is automatically included in the export list as a non-LANSA object. The source library for this object defaults to *LIBL (search current jobs library list). This value may not be correct and may have to be modified later using the 'Review/Delete Objects Already in the List' option.
When you have finished using this facility, use the function key to return to the .
