Using QMF

Creating reusable procedures with substitution variables

You can use substitution variables in &proclis and procedures with logic, just as you can in queries.

A substitution variable is any variable that you can use in a QMF command; QMF manages these variables for you. A substitution variable is always preceded by an ampersand (&).

You can supply a value for a variable in the following ways:

• On the RUN command
• On a prompt panel
• On the SET GLOBAL command
