OMIT control statement

OMIT	COND=(logical expression) [ FORMAT=f ] \| ALL \| (ALL) \| NONE \| (NONE)

Use an OMIT statement if you do not want certain records to appear in the output data set. The OMIT statement selects the records you want to exclude.

You can specify either an INCLUDE statement or an OMIT statement in the same DFSORT run, but not both.

COND parameter

The parameter COND may assume 3 values:

Value	Description
ALL	all the records are omitted
NONE	no record is omitted
logical expression	If the logical expression is true for a given record, the record is omitted from the output data set. A logical expression consists of one or more relational conditions.
