With this settings box you set name prefixes for the generated dataset
names.
- Prefix – Enter the prefix
here that is to be placed before a generated name.
Warning: Use short prefixes wherever possible from one to
two letters; numbers are possible, but there is the danger of a clash of names
during progressive input.
Note: Example: The prefix 1 leads to a name clash with the
name of the first dataset formed of the prefix and the serial number of the
dataset, 11, when the 11th dataset is generated.
Note: For this reason, (as a rule of thumb) the prefix should be always
changed when renaming generated dataset names. Then names clashes are
impossible.
- Format – Determines whether
and how many zeros of the assigned record number are pre-set.
