VMS Help CMS, DELETE, GENERATION, Qualifiers, /FROM[=generation-expression]  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    deleted, including the specified generation. You cannot specify
    both /FROM and /AFTER or both /FROM and /GENERATION. You must
    specify the end of the range with either the /BEFORE or /TO
    qualifier.
