VMS Help SORT, Specification File Qualifiers, /OMIT, Full Description *Conan The Librarian |
You can specify that records are to be omitted from the output
file by using the /OMIT qualifier. First, you must define a
condition with the /CONDITION qualifier. Specify your record
selection with an /OMIT qualifier requesting the records
satisfying that condition be selected for omission from your
sort. By default, Sort/Merge includes all the other input records
in the output file.
You can specify multiple /OMIT and /INCLUDE qualifiers in your
specification file. The order you specify them determines the
order the input records are tested for omission. All the records
that have not already been included or omitted after the last
/OMIT qualifier are included. You can unconditionally omit any
records not previously omitted or included by specifying the
/OMIT qualifier only.
