There are two ways to edit BTEQ scripts and run files:
|
BTEQ State |
Command |
|
Invoked |
Use the TSO command to access a mainframe-attached system editor, or the OS command to access a workstation-attached system editor. |
|
Not Invoked |
Use any available system editor. |
Note: Do not use an editor that introduces line numbers into the file.
Note: When editing a script or run file from within BTEQ, it might be necessary to increase the size of the region in use for the TSO command to succeed.
Accessing the System Editor
To access a system editor from within BTEQ:
|
Operating System |
Command Options |
|
z/OS |
The TSO command: .TSO ISPF
|
|
UNIX OS |
The OS command as either: .OS VI filename
or .OS ED filename
|
|
Windows |
The OS command as either: .OS NOTEPAD filename
or .OS EDLIN filename
|
After revising a file and exiting the system editor, BTEQ resumes process control.
