In DB2 QMF Version 8.1, the LAYOUT command has been changed to support long owner and table names.
The LAYOUT command is implemented as an ISPF application using the QMF command interface. The command prompt panel is defined using ISPF services and is allocated to ISPF as an ISPF panel. ISPF provides support for scrollable fields and allows QMF to specify a long name within the existing short name field. The ISPF commands RIGHT, LEFT, and EXPAND can be used to enter or view data within the scrollable field. Your system must be at z/OS Version 1.2 or higher to use this new enhancement.
The LAYOUT command generates a sample QMF Report using just a QMF Form object as input. This can assist in the development of a QMF Form by providing a visual rendering of a representative report. Report development can proceed even before any actual data is loaded into the database.
LAYOUT is a command synonym for a QMF-supplied ISPF application. It analyses the Form and creates sufficient generic data to exercise the basic report features specified in the QMF Form. No query is needed.
