Compare Utility Member Directory

The Compare Utility Member Directory screen displays a list of the members in the Compare "OLD" Data set library. When you type a wildcarded member name, the directory contains a list of the members that match the member wildcard. Additionally, if selection criteria were specified to further filter the members to be compared, the list of members contains only those members matching the wildcard specification and the selection criteria.

Primary commands supported by the Compare Utility Member Directory are as follows:

CANCEL or CAN

Cancels the compare operation. The LOCATE, MEMBER, and SORT commands assist in the location of the desired members.

L | LOCATE

This command, followed by a value, positions to the first member directory entry whose sort sequence field is greater than or equal to the specified value. For example, when the directory list is sorted by the Name column, the L ABC positions the member list to the first member in the list whose member name is greater than or equal to the name ABC.

MEMBER

This command, followed by valid selection criteria, specifies additional member selection criteria. Using this command format reduces the current member list to only those members that contain records that match the specified selection criteria. Successive MEMBER commands can be used to continually reduce the current member list. For example, MEMBER 'ABC' reduces the member list to only those members that contain the characters ABC in one of their records. A subsequent MEMBER 'XYZ' command reduces the member list to only those members that contain the characters ABC and XYZ.

RES | RESET

Clears the selection indicator for all the members of the list.

SORT

Sorts the directory by any of the columns in the directory when you type SORT XXX or SORT XXX Y where 'XXX' is one of the column literals and 'Y' is 'A' for ascending or 'D' for descending. For example, SORT CREATED sorts the directory in descending order of Created Date and SORT ID A sorts the directory in ascending order of User ID.

S member

Selects a member or group of members from the current member list.
