## Essential Parameters

> MCODE

>   For security purposes, a mastercode is required to run the ADAZAP utility. Software AG provides the 8-byte mastercode on written request to authorized individuals.

> ASSO | DATA | WORK

>   It is necessary to specify the physical data set you wish to display or modify.

## Optional Parameters

> LENGTH

>   The length of the data to be displayed. LENGTH cannot be specified if VER is specified, and the reverse.

>   The minimum number of bytes displayed is 16 since the lower address is rounded down to a 16-byte boundary and the upper address is rounded up to a 16-byte boundary.

> OFFSET

>   This is the offset from the start of the block. The value must be smaller than or equal to the length of a block; that is, it must fall within the block. The default value is zero.

> RABN

>   The relative Adabas block number (RABN) that is to be displayed or altered. The default is '1'.

> REP

>   The replace data, which must be less than or equal to the verify data specified in the VER parameter. Up to 128 bytes of hexadecimal data may be specified.

> VER

>   The verify data, which must be at least as long as the replace data. Up to 128 bytes of hexadecimal data may be specified.

## Examples

#### Example 1:

    ADAZAP MCODE=master-code
           ADAZAP ASSO OFFSET=X'10',LENGTH=16

The default RABN=1 is used. ADAZAP displays the database name.

#### Example 2:

    ADAZAP MCODE=master-code
    ADAZAP WORK OFFSET=X'10'
    ADAZAP      VER=X'C1C2'
    ADAZAP      REP=X'C2C1'

The default RABN=1 is used. ADAZAP alters data in the Work data set.
