Customer is using the SARGRW utility to select specific sysouts from the View database using the logical operator of "EQ"
Example: /SELECT ID EQ 'sysoutid'
Is there a MASKING function available with the SARGRW utility that would allow us to use, for example, /SELECT ID EQ '*xyz' so that only sysoutids ending with the characters of 'XYZ' would be selected?
Release : View 14.0
We can MASK the sysout ID parameter using the LIKE logical operator rather than the EQ logical operator.
Example 1:
In SARGRW control statements...
Instead of coding: /SELECT ID EQ 'sysoutid'
Code the statement as: /SELECT ID LIKE '*XYZ'
So that only sysoutids ending with the characters of 'XYZ' would be selected
Example 2:
Using the statement: /SELECT ID LIKE 'ABC*'
Would select all sysouts that started with the characters "ABC"
For more information on using the SARGRW utility, please refer to the topic "General Report Writer" in the View documentation.
