Add Items from the Program Listing Area to the Watch Data View

You can add keywords, memory expressions, or variables from COBOL, Assembler, or PL/I program listings to the Watch Data view.

Follow these steps:

  1. Locate and select the variable in the Program Listing area.

  2. Right-click and select Add to Watch Data.
    The Watch Data view refreshes to display the new variable.

Note: If you have selected a PL/I-based variable then the PL/I Locator Qualifier Selection dialog opens prompting you to enter the locator qualifier. For more information, see Specify PL/I Locator Qualifiers for based Variables.
