Use the QMF EXPORT command to export a QMF object into a sequential CMS file, a TSO data set, or a CICS data queue.
You can export QMF database objects from either temporary storage or from the database depending on the object type, as is shown in Table 13.
Data object | Export from database | Export from temporary storage |
---|---|---|
TABLE | X | |
QUERY | X | X |
FORM | X | X |
PROCEDURE | X | X |
DATA | X | |
REPORT | X | |
CHART | X |
You can export reports and charts from temporary storage, but you cannot import them into temporary storage.
When you export a QMF object from an object panel, you do not need to specify the object type for the export. For example, if you enter an export command from a form panel, the form currently displayed in the panel is exported with the default object type FORM. If you enter an export command from a chart panel, the chart currently displayed in the panel is exported with the default object type CHART. If you attempt to export from a panel that does not have a valid object type for export, and do not specify a valid object type, QMF prompts you for a valid object type.
