Verify Keyword Table Contents

If you choose Option 3, Verify Keyword Table Contents on the ISPF Configuration utility main menu panel, ISPF verifies that the keyword file is correct in these respects:

each record is in the correct format
each keyword specified is a recognized keyword
each value is syntactically correct.

If any verification errors are found, a listing similar to the one shown in Figure 1 is displayed. The listing shows the line in error and the reason that ISPF flagged it as incorrect.
