  • The PANEL Command:
    • The PANEL command is used to create a panel.
    • The /SETUP switch tells the panel to look for a setup file.
      • It is assumed that the setup file is named <macro name>.mmp.
      • If the setup file is not found, a default setup will be provided and you will be allowed to configure it at that time.
      • There are options for having more than one setup file, see the PANEL explain file for details.
    • The /CONTROLS=GC switch tells GCONTROL to put a reference to all of the GControls in a table called GC.
    • Most of the time a panel is created on the first line of a pipe section using the line:
      PANEL/SETUP/CONTROLS=GC
