This NCL procedure allows you to obtain the value of a single startup parameter.
(Although you can display the value of single system parameters using the SHOW
SYSPARMS command, you cannot display the value of a single startup parameter
using the SHOW PARAM command.) Comments throughout the NCL procedure
describe each step.
The following screen shows the result of executing the NCL procedure five times:
