LIST (L)

The LIST parameter prints a list of selected records while the function continues to process the entire data set. Any packed or binary data is printed as blanks. Records printed using the LIST parameter do not have record number, record length, or column scale displayed. Example LIST output is shown in the SYSLIST LIST Request Output and Tags SYSLIST LIST Request Output and Tags.


Note

Do not use the LIST parameter with the LIST function.

The syntax of the LIST parameter is:

LIST=n

n

Number of records to list. Any number from 0 (zero) to 999999999 can be used. Listing of records can be based on one or more data selection parameters. Use LIST=0 to list all selected records.

Example:

$$DD01 COPY OUT=100,LIST=10

This example copies 100 records to DD01O and lists ten records to SYSLIST.
