> Creating Aliases for Mnemonics

Create "aliases" for frequently used mnemonics, instead of memorizing the mnemonic of every form. Then, enter the alias in Address or the direct selection field to access the form.

Follow these steps to create aliases for mnemonics.

1. Open the Function abbreviations form (BMFUNU).

2. Query for the form for which to create an alias.

3. Abbreviation—Enter the alias for the selected form.

4. Choose File | Save from the menu bar. Datastream 7i creates the alias.
