Displaying Run Times
The BATCHCAL program can display run times in list form and in chart form:
•
A run-times list is a single column of run times listed one per line in ascending date
order. BATCHCAL displays run times in list form when you include the NEXT-DATE
or SHOW-DATES program parameter in the RUN BATCHCAL command. For
example:
> BATCHCAL /IN FEB1993/ SHOW-DATES
$DATA7.CALFILES.FEB1993
1993-02-01 12:00:00
1993-02-02 12:00:00
1993-02-03 12:00:00 .
.
1993-02-26 12:00:00
Note. The data structure and format must conform to the rules in Entering Source Data on
page 5-5.
