Many of the options that can be invoked from the process control menu will request the name(s) of the processes that you wish to work with (i.e. process to execute, review/change, compile, etc). In all cases the process selection is done in exactly the same way.

Initially a screen is presented that requests the name(s) of the processes to be worked with.

If you have been working with processes previously then the name will be prefilled with the name of the last process that was worked with.

`SELPROCES Select Process to Work with` `Enter full or partial name of the process(s) to be worked` `with or leave blank to select from all processes . . . _______` `Fnn=Help Fnn=Exit Fnn=Cancel Fnn=Messages`

Using this display it is possible to nominate the process(s) required in 3 different ways:

In full. Enter the full name of the process required. If the process is found then the option chosen from the process control menu will be directly invoked for the process specified.
Partially. Enter as much as desired of the partial name of the process. A search is made for all processes which generically match the name specified and the resulting list is displayed for selection.
Leave blank. In this case a list of all processes defined to LANSA is displayed from which the desired process(s) can be selected.

When you press Enter, a list of processes is displayed.

Select one or more process(s) from the list by entering any non-blank character beside the process in the column labeled "Sel". If this is done then the option selected from the process control menu will be invoked for the process(s) selected.
