Example 4

To only convert affected files, specify only the files that should be converted:

CONVERT PAGE IN AREA EMPDEMO.EMP-DEMO-REGION TO NEWDEMO,
                   EMPDEMO.INS-DEMO-REGION   TO NEWDEMO,
                   EMPDEMO.ORG-DEMO-REGION   TO NEWDEMO
                   FILE EMPDEMO-FILE, INSDEMO-FILE;

Or if the areas were in a different DMCL:

CONVERT PAGE IN AREA EMPDEMO.EMP-DEMO-REGION,
                   EMPDEMO.INS-DEMO-REGION,
                   EMPDEMO.ORG-DEMO-REGION
                   DMCL NEWDMCL
                   FILE EMPDEMO-FILE INTO EMPDDX,
                        INSDEMO-FILE INTO INSDDX;

This syntax would only cause the Emp-demo-region and the Ins-demo-region to be converted.

If you decided that the Org-demo-region also needed to be converted, you could run the following:

CONVERT PAGE IN AREA EMPDEMO.EMP-DEMO-REGION,
                   EMPDEMO.INS-DEMO-REGION,
                   EMPDEMO.ORG-DEMO-REGION
                   DMCL NEWDMCL
                   FILE ORGDEMO-FILE INTO ORGDDX;

This syntax works because all three areas were identified to compare phase. Even though the files were converted in separate jobs, all jobs knew about all changes.
