3.7.14LIST

Syntax

L[IST] [ stmt_num ];

Description

The LIST statement displays the statement with the specified statement number from the state- ment history buffer and makes it the current statement by adding it to the end of the history list.

If LIST omits stmt_num, it displays the last statement in the history buffer.

Example

The following example uses the LIST statement to display the 5th statement in the history buffer (select customer_name from customers) and copy it to the end of the history list. It then executes the now-current statement using the RUN statement:

ISQL> history

1title

2title top "fred" skip 5

3title

4help title

5select customer_name from customers

6display "Display on page break!"

7display "Test page break display" on page

8select customer_name from customers

9select customer_name from customers
