Changing Scope Records

Use the CHANGE subcommand under the SCP setting to modify specific entries in particular fields of a single scope record or a group of scope records. The syntax for this CHANGE subcommand is:

        { *             }
CHange  { recname       }
        { LIKE(recmask) }   {ADD|DELete|REPlace}
 
      { [ Dsn(entry1,entry2,...,entryn)   ] }
      { [ Inf(entry1,entry2,...,entryn)   ] }
      { [ Lid(entry1,entry2,...,entryn)   ] }
      { [ Uid(entry1,entry2,...,entryn)   ] }

*

Specifies that you want to change the last scope record processed since you established the current SCOPE setting.

recordname

Specifies that you want to change the one‑ to eight‑character name of an individual scope record.

LIKE(recmask)

Specifies that you want to change a one‑ to eight‑character mask for the names of scope records. Define this scope record name in the SCPLIST field of the user's logonid record.

ADD|DELete|REPlace

These subfunctions modify the record.

ADD

Adds the specified entries to the indicated fields of the record. This is the default.

DEL

Deletes the specified entries from the indicated fields.

REP

Replaces all entries in the indicated field with the specified entries.

There are four different types of fields that you can modify in a scope record with the CHANGE subcommand.
