RPLEDTD REPLACE EDIT DESCRIPTION TAASYTH
The Replace Edit Description command uses the outfile created by CVTEDTD to replace one or all of the Edit Descriptions (5-9) in QSYS. A specific Edit Description (or all) are deleted and then the values from the CVTEDTD outfile are used to create the new Edit Descriptions. The command is helpful in moving a standard set of Edit Descriptions to other systems. You must have *ALLOBJ authority to use RPLEDTD. You must have first used CVTEDTD to create the outfile EDTDP. To replace all Edit Descriptions, you would specify: RPLEDTD LIB(xxx) where the library contains the EDTDP file. One or more records must exist in EDTDP for the command to process. For the named (or all) Edit Description: ** DSPEDTD is used to print the old version if it exists. ** The existing Edit Description is deleted. ** The new Edit Description is created from the EDTDP data. ** DSPEDTD is used to print the new Edit Description. Use of CVTEDTD/RPLEDTD on the same system ----------------------------------------- Some users may want to capture a good version of the Edit Description entries for a possible later use if the entries become damaged or need to be reset.
