320 OPTIONS Procedure Chapter 16
The MERGE statement merges the specified itemstore into the itemstore opened
previously with PROC ITEMS.
A libref is required in the MERGE statement. If the two itemstores have directories
with the same name and path, the contents of the new directory replace the contents of
the old directory. If you merge into the root directory, the entire itemstore is replaced. If
you merge a new item into a directory, the new item is merged into the old directory. If
the old directory contains an item of the same name, the new item replaces the old item.
DELETE Statement
DELETE ;
The DELETE statement deletes all or part of the contents in an itemstore.
The following options can be used in the DELETE statement:
DIR=’dir-name’
specifies the directory from which you wish to delete. When DIR= is not specified,
either the entire contents of the itemstore are deleted or the specified item is
deleted from the itemstore’s root directory.
ITEM=’item-name’
deletes the specified item from the specified directory in the itemstore, or if a
directory is not specified, from the root directory of the itemstore.
