Autocomplete feature on mainframe
 
 
Sometimes we feel if we have an autotype feature on mainframe, we would 
have saved us a lot of keystrokes. 
 
We do have this feature and we can enable by following these simple steps
 
 
Step1: Start
 
Step2: 3.4 
; ; ; ;
 
Step3: enter KEYS command
 
Step4: Set any PF key to AUTOTYPE and exit. Please see the below screen shot for reference
 
autotype
Now type any Dataset partially and press the PFkey assigned in step above
 
Note: This will not work with GDD's and VSAM files
