Maybe I am not clear myself on what ISPF can do in the PANEL options. I have a field on my Selection Panel. It has SR01 and ER01 (Starting Range and Ending Range) that are to be UCB addresses. This field is EBCDIC though the numbers are Hex in nature. I am trying to validate that the field entered is a range from 0000-FFFF and that the Ending Range is not smaller than the starting range.
I would enter 30FF for a valid UCB Address (not x'30ff' but c'30ff'). I like letting the panel do as much of the work as possible. But I am not yet ready to jump into using REXX in the panel. I can place this code in the REXX in my routine that displays the Panel, but had hoped that ISPF could handle it thru the VER PICT function or something similar. I maybe barking up the wrong tree and just need to adjust my process to use REXX to do the validation and verification. I will noodle this some more over the weekend. Thanks for your input.
