RDELETE and RSELECT commands: point to note
The RSELECT and RDELETE commands are supported on the
FreeFlow Print Server LCDS systems only for offline printing.
RDELETE command example
The following commands illustrate the use of RDELETE to
process interspersed reports on a record basis. Refer to the
figure below.
The above example shows that, if the contents of a deletion
control field located 104 bytes from the start of the user portion of
the record are equal to the constant 'EFGH,’ the record is not
printed.
In the example illustrated in the following figure, records 2 and 6
will not be printed.
