DCUF SET CASE UPLO not working

Issue/Introduction

Setting the terminal to use mixed case by using the command DCUF SET CASE UPLO is not working.

When I execute that command it displays:

      SET CASE UPLO
CASE     :UPLO     

That would seem to indicate that the CASE has been set to UPLO as requested in the command.

However I then execute the DCUF SHOW CASE command it displays:

      SHOW CASE
CASE     :UPPER

For some reason IDMS is not retaining the UPLO value.

Environment

Release : 19.0

Resolution

The syntax for the DCUF command is documented in  section DCUF SET UPPER/UPLOW.

The correct syntax is:
 
DCUF SET UPLO

The response is:

      SET UPLO                
IDMS DC402009 V65 UPLOW HAS BEEN SET   

Then doing a  DCUF SHO CASE displays:

       SHO CASE  
CASE     :UPLOW 

You can also use DCUF SET to set a user session attribute like CASE but you have to specify the whole word UPLOW you can't abbreviate it like in the DCUF SET UPLOW command.
So you can use the command:

DCUF SET CASE UPLOW
