From the SP Test tool, click a stored procedure on the tree view.
On the
Parms tab, right-click the
Value column corresponding to the parameter whose value you want to edit, then click
Insert side file.
Navigate to the side file (.dat file) you want to use, or type the full path and filename of the side file into the
File name field, then click
Open.
On the SP Test tool IDE, tab to another column to ensure that the value is saved properly.
Note:
The side file specification appears in the
Value column in the following format:
<SF=path/filename>
If you have set the
Encoding of Side Files option to
EBCDIC, <ENC=E> is appended to the end.
Numeric parameter values must be valid for the stored procedure to execute properly.
For input parameters, you can also specify a value by entering it directly into the
Value column, using the Edit Entry Values editor, or by specifying a special register.
You cannot specify a side file to store an output parameter value unless you have set the
Allow Output Side Files option to
True.
