xcall L_GLOBAL(list_id)

Arguments

list_id

The ID of the list to be promoted. (n)

Discussion

L_GLOBAL promotes the list’s associated input window to global status, along with any other window (header, footer, and so forth) that may be associated with the list.

If list_id is already global, this subroutine will be ignored. Otherwise, if list_id is not local to the current environment, a fatal error occurs.

Examples

In the following example, L_CREATE returns the variable lstid with the list ID, and the L_GLOBAL subroutine promotes that list to global status.

xcall l_create(lstid, inpid)
xcall l_global(lstid)
