Command Reference 5-69

Rule:

Buffer-field1

and

buffer-field2

must be the same type. For example, if

buffer-field1

is numeric,

buffer-field2

must be numeric.

If the record is not found, the pointer is undefined. The script must execute the

command again to ensure a valid record pointer.

Optional Fields

Invalid

and

valid labels

are discussed in "Script Flow" at the beginning of this

chapter. The exception is as follows:

If the search fails to find the requested field or it detects end of file, control passes

invalid label

Example

This example searches the CONTROL_ID field for an exact match with the Input

Buffer's contents. If there is no match, control passes to *ERROR_ID. Otherwise,

control passes to the *PROCESS_ID.

QUERY CONTROL_ID,EQ,INPUT,*ERROR_ID,*PROCESS_ID
