Say the user types ar.pv...

Code:

&zsel = TRANS(TRUNC(&zcmd ,'.')
AR,'CMD(%SW2 AR)'

The ar.pv command is truncated at the period and the prefix is used, like a case statement. The panel syntax is correct for the panel, but the effect is to work something like this:

Code:

Select
When (zsel = 'AR') Then Address ISPEXEC "SELECT CMD(%SW2 AR)"
