Details

The FNAME window displays allocated DDnames whether they are identified as librefs, filerefs, or other DDnames. You can invoke the FNAME window from any window in the windowing environment, including the windows in SAS/FSP and SAS/AF. To invoke it, type FNAME. If you do not supply the optional DDname, then the FNAME window displays all DDnames that are associated with your TSO login session and your SAS session, along with the names of the physical files that are associated with them. If you supply a DDname, it can either be specific or generic. For example, to see only DDnames that begin with S, you would use either of the following generic specifications: FNAME S* or FNAME S: .

In the FNAME window you can perform various tasks by entering one of the following selection-field commands:

B	selects a sequential data set or partitioned data set (PDS) member for browsing.
E	selects a sequential data set or PDS member for editing.
I	includes a sequential data set or PDS member into the PROGRAM EDITOR window.
F	frees (deallocates) an allocated fileref
M	opens the MEMLIST window, which lists the members in a single PDS.
C	lists the members in a concatenation of PDSs.
S	selects or emulates a double-click. The action taken varies according to file type. Selecting a PDS brings up the MEMLIST window, for example.
X	displays file properties.
%	submits a %INCLUDE statement to SAS to include a sequential data set or PDS member.
?	displays a popup menu of available selection-field commands.
