Syntax

Operands

member_name
The name of the member in the current member selection list.
MEMpatt
A member name pattern using the wildcard characters % and *.
tag
A character string of up to seven characters with no embedded blanks to be placed in the PROMPT field of the specified member, or all members matching the specified pattern.

If this parameter is omitted, the current tag is to be removed.

Filter
After the tag is applied as specified, filter the member list to display only those members having the specified tag (including members with this tag as a result of prior invocations of the TAG command).

Usage notes

  • A member tag is a non-blank label that is preceded by a plus sign (+) in the PROMPT column. A string that is preceded by a hyphen (-) is a comment, not tag.
  • Only after executing a TAG command, a member entry with non-blank data in the PROMPT column is considered tagged.
  • The Filter option invokes command FILTER TAG tag after tagging all selected members.

Feedback messages

The specified tag is placed in the feedback message field.

Examples

TAG IQI* DSC
Sets tag +DSC to all the members with a name that starts with IQI.
+ TST* DBG F
Sets tag +DBG to all the members with a name that starts with TST, and hide all the other members from display.
+ *
Removes all the tags in the current member selection list.
The following example uses the + line command to tag member DRIVER01 with a DBG label, and removes the tag of member DRIVER23:
  NAME     PROMPT
+ DRIVER01 DBG   
+ DRIVER23
