REPRONOREUSEspecifies that records are written at the end of an entry-sequenced data set.(OUTFILE or OUTDATASET must identify a nonempty data set.)Abbreviation: NRUSSKIPDBCSCHECK((offset1 offset2)[(offset1 offset2)...])|NODBCSCHECKSKIPDBCSCHECK and NODBCSCHECK cannot be specified unless DBCS isalso specified.SKIPDBCSCHECK((offset1 offset2)[(offset1 offset2)...])indicates that characters between offset1 and offset2 are not to be checkedfor DBCS criteria during REPRO command processing.offset1Indicates the byte offset in the logical record to be copied at whichchecking is to cease until offset2 is reached.offset2Indicates the byte offset in the logical record after which checking is toresume. offset2 must be greater than offset1.Offset pairs cannot overlap ranges.The maximum number of offset pairs that can be specified is 255.Abbreviation: SKDCKNODBCSCHECKindicates DBCS verification checking will not be done.Abbreviation: NODCKTOKEY(key)|TOADDRESS(address)|TONUMBER(number)|COUNT(number)specifies where copying is to end in the data set being copied. You can specifyonly one of these parameters for a copy operation. The location where copyingis to end must follow the location where it is to begin. If no value is coded,copying ends at the logical end of the data set or component.COUNT is the only parameter that can be specified for a SAM data set.None of these parameters can be specified when copying a catalog or a lineardata set; the entire catalog or linear data space must be copied.The ending delimiter must be consistent with the starting delimiter. Forexample, if FROMADDRESS is specified for the starting location, useTOADDRESS to specify the ending location. The same is true for FROMKEYand TOKEY, and FROMNUMBER and TONUMBER.TOKEY(key)specifies the key of the last record you want copied. You can specifygeneric keys (a portion of the key followed by *). If you specify generickeys, copying stops after the last record whose key matches that portion ofthe key you specified is copied. If you specify a key longer than the onedefined for the data set, the data set is not copied. If the specified key isnot found, copying ends at the next lower key. TOKEY can be specifiedonly when copying an alternate index, a KSDS, or an ISAM data set. A keyending in X'5C' is processed as a generic key.keyCan contain 1-to-255 EBCDIC characters.Chapter 30.
