<h1 class="topictitle1">RANGE (Range) keyword for physical and logical files</h1>
<div><p>Specify this keyword at the field level, the select- or omit-field
level, or both.</p>
<div class="section"><div class="p">The format of the keyword is: <pre>RANGE(low-value high-value)</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="example" id="tdrange__e1"><a name="tdrange__e1"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example 1</h4><p>The following example shows how
to specify character and numeric strings for the RANGE keyword.</p>
<pre>|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
00010A R RECORD PFILE(PF1)
A
00020A FIELDA 1 0 RANGE(2 5) <span><span>1</span></span>
00030A FIELDB 1 RANGE('2' '5')
00040A FIELDC
00050A K FIELDD
00060A S FIELDA RANGE(1 4) <span><span>2</span></span>
A</pre>
<p>In this example, RANGE (<span>1</span>) is specified for
FIELDA and FIELDB as a validity checking keyword for display files that refer
to FIELDA and FIELDB. In the display file, RANGE requires that the workstation
user type only 2, 3, 4, or 5 in FIELDA or FIELDB. FIELDA is a numeric field
and FIELDB is a character field. The type of field you specify depends on
the high-level language the program is written in.</p>
<p>RANGE (<span>2</span>)
is specified as a select/omit keyword for FIELDA. Records from the physical
file PF1 are retrieved through this logical file record format only if the
value of FIELDA is 1, 2, 3, or 4.</p>
</div>
<div class="example" id="tdrange__e2"><a name="tdrange__e2"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example 2</h4><p>The following example uses hexadecimal
character strings when specifying the RANGE keyword.</p>
<pre>|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
00010A R RCD1 PFILE(PF1)

00040A FLD2
00050A K FLD1
00060A S CODEA RANGE(X'51' X'54')
A</pre>
<p>RANGE is specified as a select/omit keyword for CODEA
(which is a 1-byte field). Records from physical file PF1 are retrieved through
this record format only if the value of field CODEA is from hex 51 through
hex 54.</p>

<ul class="ullinks">
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakbmstrangefield.htm">Specify RANGE at the field level</a></strong><br />
At the field level, this keyword specifies validity checking for the field that you are defining when it is referred to later during display file creation.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakbmstrangeselom.htm">Specify RANGE at the select or omit-field level</a></strong><br />
At the select/omit-field level, this keyword selects or omits records retrieved from the physical file(s) when your program sends an input operation using the record format in which the select/omit field is specified.</li>
