Sample Control File

Below is a sample for a dialog control file which consists of a main control file and an include file. The include file is referenced in the overallAttr XML tag of the main control file.

This control file is used to generate three AWM Execute ISPF Dialog tools for the ISPF "Endevor retrieve" application representing the ISPF panels NDVELIST, NDVSEL and TEST.
