Prints a message containing the count of values in a specified range for a specific numeric field.

DFSORT is called to copy the indd data set to ICETOOL's E35 user exit. ICETOOL prints a message containing the range count as determined by its E35 user exit.

The range can be specified as higher than x, lower than y, higher than x and lower than y, equal to v, or not equal to w, where x, y, v, and w are signed or unsigned decimal values. If the range is specified as higher than x and lower than y, it must be a valid range (for example, higher than 5 and lower than 6 is not a valid range, because there is no integer value that satisfies the criteria).

You must not supply your own DFSORT MODS, INREC, or OUTREC statement, because they would override the DFSORT statements passed by ICETOOL for this operator.
