HI ALL,

I'VE DEVELOPERD AN ISPF PANEL LIKE THIS:

)PANEL KEYLIST(ISRSAB,ISR)
)BODY WINDOW(70,22) CMD(ZCMD) ASIS
%---------------------- PASSWORD ADMINISTRATION ----------------------
+
% SELECT OPTION ===>_ZCMD%
%
% 1 + PROGRAM1
% 2 + PROGRAM2
% 3 + PROGRAM3
% 4 + PROGRAM4
% 5 + PROGRAM5
% 6 + PROGRAM6
% 7 + EXIT

THE "ZCMD FIELD" ACCEPTS 4 CHARACTERS. BUT I NEED JUST 1 CHARACTER (and no more)
HOW I CAN REDUCE THE NUMBER OF CHARACTERS TO 1?

THANKS IN ADVANCE.

wise to review Your understanding of ISPF <select panel> logic
ISPF logic dictates ZCMD to be large enough to accept any reasonable command ...
like in any other ISPF provided panel
in order to be able to <jump to >/<execute> any ISPF panel/command

+ Coefficient ......$Z +
+ Niveau .......$Z+
)INIT
.ZVARS = '(COEF NIV)'

Here COEF will be on 3 char (Z and 2 blanks) , and Niv on 1 char (Z)
All the fields are Z in the panel, the first is for the variable COEF, the second for NIV, etc ...
