MODIFY
of a record—requesting a listing of the attributes of the unqualified data name will
produce an attribute listing for only the simple variable. You must qualify the name
completely when you request a listing of the attributes for a record element.

The data types reported by Inspect are not designated in terms of any one
language. Therefore, Pascal integers are marked as BIN SIGN, while Pascal real,
logical, and character items are marked as REAL, LOGICAL, and CHAR,
respectively.
MODIFY
You can specify the name of a record in a MODIFY WHOLE command, but Inspect
requires that you include the new values in the command. MODIFY does not prompt
for values when you use the WHOLE clause.
SCOPE
If you have identifiers of the same name in different scope units, be sure that you
qualify the identifiers enough for Inspect to distinguish them.
SET RADIX
Even if you set your input radix to hexadecimal, you must still prefix a hexadecimal
value with a zero (or 16#) if its first digit is above nine; otherwise, Inspect interprets the
value as an identifier.
