Prompt for values (PROMPT) / Using simple prompt inputs |
When a PROMPT instruction executes, the runtime system creates a set of default actions.
According the invoked default action, field validation occurs and different PROMPT control blocks are executed.
This table lists the default actions created for this dialog:
Default action | Description |
---|---|
accept | Validates the PROMPT dialog (validates field criteria) Creation can be avoided with the ACCEPT attribute. |
cancel | Cancels the PROMPT dialog (no validation, int_flag is set) Creation can be avoided with the CANCEL attribute. |
close | By default, cancels the PROMPT dialog (no validation, int_flag is set) Default action view is hidden. See Implementing the close action. |
help | Shows the help topic defined by the HELP clause. Only created when a HELP clause is defined. |
