Multi Field Validation in ISPF Panel

Hi,

I have three fields in an ISPF panel. I need to add validation to ensure atleast one of the three fields have a value. I put the following statement in the panel, but it doesn't work. How can this be done?

IF (&AUDFACA='')
IF (&AUDFACB='')
VER(&AUDFACC,LIST,'A','B','C',MSG=AUDT109)

We cannot tell, as you do not use the
[code].....[/code]
tags around your code.

Statements 2 and 3 should be indented. See the 'IF' statement in the ISPF Dialog Developer's Guide and Reference manual for details.

That's why I told the TS to use code tags.

Indentation is there in the actual script. The forum page removes the indentation.

The forum page removes the indentation.

bullshit :evil:
the forum removes the extra spaces for plain text
it would have kept the spacing and used a fixed pitch font if You had used the code tags


1234567890!    !    !
          !    !    !
 


a cut and paste from the coded lines
1234567890! ! !
! ! !
the extra spaces are removed and a variable pitch font is used

Ok Great. Now, Can you provide something that is useful. I have an alternative way to accomplish this, but I would prefer the Panel Validation to work.
