   Makes the variable expression globally accessible. You cannot
   specify both the /LOCAL and /GLOBAL qualifiers with the same
   MODIFY VARIABLE command.

1.2    /LOCAL

   Makes the variable expression locally accessible. You cannot
   specify both the /LOCAL and /GLOBAL qualifiers with the same
   MODIFY VARIABLE command.

1.3    /LOG

   /LOG (D)
   /NOLOG

   Controls whether Digital Test Manager displays informational and
   success messages on your screen.

1.4    /LOGICAL

   Changes a variable from a OpenVMS symbol to a OpenVMS logical name. You
   cannot specify both the /LOGICAL and /SYMBOL qualifiers with the
   same MODIFY VARIABLE command.

1.5    /NUMERIC

   Changes a string variable of a symbol to numeric value. You cannot
   specify the /NUMERIC and /STRING qualifiers with the same MODIFY
   VARIABLE command.

1.6    /REMARK

   /REMARK="string"
   /NOREMARK

   Determines whether to replace or remove the existing remark.

   The /REMARK qualifier replaces any existing remark with the
   specified remark. The /NOREMARK qualifier removes the remark
   string from the variable, leaving the remark field value null.

1.7    /STRING

   Changes a numeric variable of a symbol to a string. You cannot
   specify the /NUMERIC and /STRING qualifiers with the same MODIFY
   VARIABLE command.

1.8    /SYMBOL

   Changes a variable from a OpenVMS logical name to a OpenVMS symbol. You
   must define variables used as symbols as either numeric or string
   variable types. You cannot specify both the /LOGICAL and /SYMBOL
   qualifiers with the same MODIFY VARIABLE command.

1.9    /VALUE

   /VALUE=value

   Changes the value of the variable. A value specified with the
   MODIFY VARIABLE command replaces any previous value for the
   variable.
