Prints data item values of entries located by the last retrieval command without formatting.

Syntax



  R[EPORT]  [output control statement;] ALL [,character][,-]

For example:

  >REPORT ALL,X 

Where character = X

Parameters


output control statements

alter the standard output parameters. (Refer to the section on Output Control Statements under the REPORT command.)

character

is any printable ASCII character, except a minus sign (-). When character is used, the data item names are omitted from the report. In addition, negative values of type P or Z and positive values of type Z are printed with an overpunch character.

-

is a minus sign. When a minus sign is used, the data item names are printed with the data item values. In addition, QUERY edits negative values of type P or Z and positive values of type P to include the value sign. If the minus sign (-) not is used, negative values of type P or Z and positive values of type Z are printed with an overpunch character. Refer to the next page for more information on overpunch.

Discussion


The REPORT command prints a report of the data entries located by the last FIND, MULTIFIND, or SUBSET command.

REPORT output can be directed to any desired output device through the MPE :FILE command and the QUERY OUTPUT= command. Refer to the OUTPUT= command for more information.

If you are using REPORT ALL on an item type of U or X with a length greater than 50 characters, QUERY prints the data item value in multiples of 50 characters.

If you are using the REPORT ALL command in session mode and output is defined as LP, QUERY leaves 2 blank lines at the end of the page (page default is 60 lines). Extra lines can be eliminated by using the NOPAGE output control statement.

For multiple data set access (refer to the JOIN and MULTIFIND commands), REPORT ALL prints the data base name and data set name for each data set entry contained in a compound entry.

The following table summarizes the REPORT ALL options:

Table 6-1 REPORT ALL Options

COMMAND OVERPUNCH USED DATA ITEM NAMES PRINTED
REPORT ALLYY
REPORT ALL, XYN
REPORT ALL, -NY

Overpunch Characters


If the minus option is not used, QUERY prints negative values of type P or Z and positive values of type Z with a special character in the rightmost digit substituting for the minus or plus sign. This special character is called an overpunch character and varies according to the rightmost digit in the value. Table 6-2 "Overpunch Characters" shows the overpunch characters. For example, the number -104 is represented as 10M in QUERY.

Table 6-3 "Output of P and Z Type Values" shows the representation of P and Z type values which depends on how you entered the value and which REPORT ALL option, if any, you used. In this table, P4 and Z4 data types are shown. The output may vary for other lengths.

Examples


Example 1

  >FIND ALL LAST-NAME
  USING SERIAL READ
  13  ENTRIES QUALIFIED
  >REPORT ALL

  ACCOUNT          =54283540
  LAST-NAME        =CORCORAN
  FIRST-NAME       =CLIFFORD
  INITIAL          =C

   .                  .
   .                  .

As shown in the example above, once entries have been found, REPORT ALL prints the value for each item to which you have access.
