The SELECT primary command allows you to select one or more members
in a member list, whether they are displayed or not. When you enter
it on a member list displayed using the Edit option, this command
even creates a member if you specify the complete member name of a
member that does not exist.
The SELECT command optionally provides a quick method of calling
the same line command for one or more members. The format of the SELECT
command is:
>>-SELECT--+-pattern-+-----------------------------------------><
+-*-------+
'-lcmd----'
where:
- pattern
- Either
a complete member name or a partial member name that contains one
or more asterisks (*), percent signs (%), or both as place holders.
See Displaying member lists for more information about using
patterns.
- *
- An
asterisk, which means you want to select all members in a member list.
- lcmd
- One
of these optional line commands: S (select), B (browse), V (view),
D (delete), E (edit), or P (print). On a member list that has an expanded
line command field, such as one generated by the M (member list) line
command in the Data Set List utility (option 3.4), you can also enter
a TSO command, CLIST, or REXX exec. If you do not enter a line command,
S is the default.
The member list shown in
Figure 1 contains
members INT and INTTOOL. This command selects these members for printing:
SELECT INT* P
