Tutor-choice fields

z/OS ISPF Dialog Tag Language Guide and Reference
SC19-3620-00

Use a tutor-choice selection field to create an ISPF tutorial selection menu. Tutor-choice fields are similar to menu-choice fields. That is, the user can select only one of the choices presented. The entry field for this type of selection field is the command line, which is formatted with the word Option instead of Command. As with menu-choice selections, you can specify a preselected choice so that one item is already selected when the panel is displayed.

The CHOICE tag is followed by an ACTION tag that must specify the type of selection as PANEL, and other attributes required by the ISPF SELECT service.

When creating a tutorial menu, the MENU keyword is required on the PANEL tag. The SELFLD tag must specify TYPE=TUTOR. Depending on the panel being created, the SELFLD tag attributes ENTWIDTH and FCHOICE, and the CHOICE tag attribute SELCHAR might be required. See Tag reference for more information on the PANEL, SELFLD, CHOICE, and ACTION tags.
