Symbol statements z/OS DFSMSrmm Reporting SC23-6875-00 |
|
Each symbol in SYMNAMES must be described using a symbol statement.
A symbol statement looks like this:
Leading blanks are allowed before the symbol, so use indentation to aid readability. In ACCOUNTS.SYMBOLS, Last_Name and First_Name are indented to show they are subfields of Full_Name, and each constant symbol is indented to show the field symbol it's associated with. A symbol can be 1 - 50 characters consisting of uppercase and lowercase letters (A - Z, a - z), underscore (_), dollar sign ($), at sign (@), and number sign (#). Numbers (0-9) can be used for the second and subsequent characters. Symbols are treated as case-sensitive: Frank, FRANK, and frank are three different symbols. |
