there before coming to this screen.
Enter the name of a server, the leading characters of a name, or blanks and press F4 to
display information for the first server in the project catalog that can be associated
with the value you enter. To see each succeeding server, press F5.
To add a new server, enter the name of the server, define its information on this
screen, and press F1. A server name begins with a letter, is 1 through 30 alphanumeric
characters or hyphens (-) in length, and is not a COBOL or C reserved word. For
example, JOB-DATA-SVR is a valid server name.

server was created. You cannot enter data into these fields.

Server Type
Enter the server type. Servers can be:
CUSTOM A server that you create using the Server Definition screen. This is the
default value.
REG A registered server is one that you write outside of the Pathmaker
environment. The Pathmaker program does not generate a registered
server as part of the current project. Include the registered server’s name
in the Pathmaker project catalog so that a Pathmaker server can call it.
Values are required in the Server Name, Server Type, and Object File
fields for registered servers.
Language
Enter the name of the language in which the server is written, that is, COBOL or C.
