SCOPE
The SCOPE command changes or displays the current scope path. For more
information about scopes, see Scope Paths on page 2-12.
scope-spec
specifies the scope path that Inspect is to use as the current scope path when
qualifying unqualified identifiers.
scope-number
specifies the path to an active scope unit by the unit's scope number (as
displayed by the TRACE command).
scope-path [ (instance) ]
specifies a named scope path as the current scope path. You can include an
instance to differentiate activations of the same scope unit.
The (instance) option is invalid for COBOL programs.
#data-block
specifies a named data block as the current scope path.
##GLOBAL
specifies the implicitly named global data block in TAL as the current scope
path.
