UPDATE
ALTKEY key-value [, key-value ]
the alternate key of the starting record or row. The format of key-value is
described above.
EXACT
requests exact positioning on the record key (primary or alternate) specified in the
FIRST KEY option.
FROMLAST
positions on the last record in the key range specified in the FIRST KEY option.
REVERSE
the input file is to be READ from the starting record in reverse order.
SHARE
the file is to be opened in shared-exclusion mode. The default is protected.
SKIPMATCH (key sequenced files only)
positions in the input file to the record immediately following the one whose key
matches the key specified in the FIRST KEY option. The entire key must be
supplied. If the file is not of type key sequenced, an error 46 is returned.
display-options
Display options differ slightly from FUP display options: output data transformations
(RECOUT, BLOCKOUT, PAD and so on) are applied before formatting the data.
Thus, formatted data is displayed as the data would be written to a disk file.
Entry-sequenced record keys are displayed in the 64-bit format.
Octal
displays the output in octal and ASCII format.
Decimal
displays the output in decimal and ASCII format.
Hex
displays the output in hexadecimal and ASCII format.
Ascii
displays the output in ASCII format. This option is ignored if combined with OCTAL,
HEX, DECIMAL or BYTE display options.
NO HEAD
omits the heading preceding each record or row displayed, when one of the display-
options is specified.
