When an ISPF abend panel appears, follow these steps to build the abend keyword:

Record the abend code in this format:
ABENDnnn

where:
nnn

Is the task abend code.
For example, if the ISPF abend panel contains information as shown in ISPF abend panel:
```
  Task ABEND code 0C1
```
your keyword string would look like this:
Keyword string so far: 5650DF186 R210 ABEND0C1
If a return code accompanies the message, include the return code in your keyword string as a modifier keyword. Append the code to the keyword prefix RC. For example, if the return code is 04, your keyword string would look like this:
Keyword string so far: 5650DF186 R210 ABEND0C1 RC4
Go to Building keywords for module-related errors to build the next keyword in the string. Otherwise, continue to TSO messages.
