report/generate

GENERATE a report.

The REPORT command will cause a report definition to be executed and a report created. This is the default command, thus a REPORT command issued without a command qualifier will execute this function.

General format

report/generate [/qualifiers] definition

Activity controls:

/library = file_name

/logical = prefix

/print = option or (option,option..)

/statistics

/submit = option or (option,option...)

Default attributes:

/columns = columns_per_page

/lines = lines_per_page

/output = file_name

/srcarg = text or "text"

/srcrtn = routine_name

/srcshr = file_name

Examples

$ report/generate schedule_user

$ report/generate abc.rdf/output=sys$output

Schedule> report schedule_user_by_comment_132 /logical=strcomment

Qualifiers

/columns = columns_per_page

The COLUMNS qualifier specifies the total width of the report. This value is the default value used during report generation. If a value has been specified in the REPORT statement in the definition file then that value is used instead. If no value is provided then 80 is used.

/lines = lines_per_page

The LINES qualifier specifies the number of lines to print per page. This value is the default value used during report generation. If a value has been specified in the REPORT statement in the definition file then that value is used instead.

/output = file_name

The OUTPUT qualifier specifies the default output file name to use. If one is specified in REPORT statement of the definition file then that is used instead. If none has been specified REPORT.LIS is used.

/statistics

The STATISTICS qualifier causes CPU and I/O counts to be issued at each step of the generation process.
