SUMMARY
When an application calls DISPLAY API (included in the SNA Server APPC Management Verb support) that application receives

DISPLAY_INVALID_CONSTANT.

The SNA Server APPC interface returns DISPLAY_INVALID_CONSTANT if you do NOT set following values.                   NS/2     IBM EE    NS/2 format        EE format format  format (Windows NT only)  (Windows NT only) init_sect_len   50         44         52                 48 num_sections    16          9         16                  9 DISPLAY_INVALID_CONSTANT is also returned when you do not set the following values:   reserv2 : NULL am_info : AP_NO tp_info : AP_NO adapter_info : AP_NO (if NS/2 format) ms_info : AP_NO (if NS/2 format) Also, for the DISPLAY verb to work, a specific connection must be defined in the SNA Server Admin program Display Verb dialog box. IBM originally defined the DISPLAY verb with the IBM OS/2 Extended Edition product which assumed a single connection. However, because SNA Server supports multiple connections, the specific connection associated with the DISPLAY verb must be configured.
