You need to do some reading:
For DISPLAY service, see ISPF Services Guide
For edit macro, see ISPF Edit and Edit Macros

Use the LINE macro statement to read lines from the file being edited. Parse the lines into rexx variables
Create your panel using the same variable names
Use display service to display the panel.
