MODIFY SCREEN - Short Form

Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54

Obsolete Syntax

MODIFY SCREEN.

Effect

This is a short form of the statement

MODIFY SCREEN FROM screen.

The short form uses a structure with the name screen implicitly instead of an explicitly declared work area wa. This is either the obsolete built-in structure screen or a structure declared in the current context called screen, which must have the data type SCREEN.

Note

The long form with an explicitly declared work area should be used instead of the short form.
