Overview
The File Manager® editor allows you to edit DB2 data as logical records, in a formatted state.
A template provides a logical view of a DB2 resource, based upon field definitions in a copybook (COBOL, PL/I, or HLASM) or DB2 catalogue. Templates can be created dynamically. Templates allow users to:
- Format data according to record structures defined in copybooks, or dynamically define your own record structure
- Select the fields and records that you want to work with, adjust how fields are displayed, select fields for copying, and set the contents of fields for created data
- Set record identification and selection criteria within File Manager®
Using the File Manager® DB2 editor, you can edit DB2 databases.
