Display a subset of members (FILTER)

z/OS ISPF User's Guide Vol I
SC19-3627-00

Use the FILTER command to display only the subset of members whose attributes match the supplied comparison argument. You specify the comparison argument in this format:

Read syntax diagramSkip visual syntax diagram
>>---FILTER----field--+-EQ-+--value----------------------------><
                      +-NE-+          
                      +-LE-+          
                      +-LT-+          
                      +-GE-+          
                      '-GT-'          

Note:
  1. It is possible to filter the member list using any of the fields on the member list panel except for Prompt.
  2. If a member has no value for the specified field, the member will be considered a match for the LT and NE operators.
  3. If no members match the filter criteria, the member list remains unchanged.
  4. Entering the FILTER command with no parameters displays a panel in which you can select the field and operator and enter the value.
  5. The FILTER command can be applied repeatedly to drill down to the subset of members that match a particular combination of attributes.

    For example, to display all the members whose modification level is greater than 02, enter: FILTER MM GT 02

    To further subset this list to display only the members in which more than 200 lines have been modified, enter: FILTER MOD GT 200

  6. Enter the REFRESH command to restore the full member list.
  7. EQ and NE are the only operators that can be used to filter the fields AM, RM, and ATTR.
  8. The value must be specified in the appropriate format for the field type. For example, version number must be specified as a 1-digit or 2-digit number, creation date must be specified in date format, and load module size must be specified as a hex string:
    FILTER VV EQ 02
    
    FILTER CRE LT 2000/01/01
    
    FILTER SIZE GT FFFFFF
