if You need help in coding DTL,
I suppose t might be wiser to stick to the traditional panels approach

Or of course read the manual, and apply a little trial and error technology

DTL is a tag language. If you know HTML, DTL will look fairly familiar. Look at the DTL reference book. There are many short examples.

Also, all of the ISPF panels are delivered in DTL form... look at your SMP/E libraries for SISPGENU and SISPGMLI datasets. Use PANELID to find the name of a panel to use as a model and then find it in SISPGENU (it might embed files from SISPGMLI).

Put your DTL source into a member of a PDS. Compile using ISPDTLC command. The output will be a panel library member.
