IBM SC41-5210-04 manual Prompt Changed Effect

When you finish making changes on all the displays you want to change, Query returns you to the Define the Query display, where the options now defined for your query are shown with a > to the left of the option. You can choose more options to make more changes, or you can press F3 to end the process of changing the query.

From the Exit This Query display, you can do either or both of the following:

vSave the query definition with the changes you have made.

vRun the query with the changes you have made.

		Exit This Query
Type choices, press Enter.

You can change any combination of the Query, Library, and Text prompts. If you save the query definition, these changes have the following effects:

Query Name and/or	Query Name and
Library Name Changed	Library Name Unchanged
Existing query is not changed	Existing query is changed
New query created with new name and/or in different	New query definition replaces existing definition

If you are replacing a query, you cannot specify authorization list name authority; you must use one of the special names (*CHANGE, *ALL, *EXCLUDE, or *USE) or blanks (no change).

If you choose not to save the query definition, changes to the following prompts have the following effects:

Prompt Changed	Effect
