SUBTYPES Keyword (OMS command)

The SUBTYPES keyword restricts the selection to the specified table types The keyword SUBTYPES must be followed by an equals sign (=) and a list of quoted subtype identifiers enclosed in square bracket, as in:

OMS
 /SELECT TABLES
 /IF SUBTYPES = ['Descriptive Statistics' 'Coefficients']
 /DESTINATION...
  • Subtypes apply only to tables that would be displayed as pivot tables in the Viewer.
  • Like command identifiers, subtype identifiers are not case-sensitive and are not subject to translation.
  • Unlike command identifiers, subtype identifiers are not necessarily unique. For example, multiple commands produce a table with the subtype identifier "Descriptive Statistics," but not all of those tables share the same structure. If you want only a particular table type for a particular command, use both the COMMANDS and SUBTYPES keywords.
  • The OMS Control Panel (Utilities menu) provides a complete list of subtypes. You can also obtain the identifier for a particular table by generating output from the command in the Viewer and then right-clicking outline item for the Table in the outline pane of the Viewer and selecting Copy OMS Table Subtype from the context menu. The identifiers are generally fairly descriptive of the particular table type.
