Notes about this Table
Re | indicates an SAA/CUA 'reserved' function key. In such cases the function key cannot be reassigned to other functions. |
Op | indicates a 'non-reserved' SAA/CUA function key. In such cases the function key may be reassigned to other functions, but only if the application does not support a function listed for the function key in the table above. |
* | indicates an SAA/CUA function key assignment that is not allowed for complete SAA/CUA compatibility. The use of such keys is controlled by the USER_KEYS parameter of DISPLAY and REQUEST commands. It is the responsibility of the user to implement such key assignments in RDML programs as per the SAA/CUA guidelines described by the table above. |
*** | indicates a non-SAA/CUA function key that is required in this table because it is implemented by LANSA. |
