VMS Help READ, Qualifiers, /END_OF_FILE *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX) |
/END_OF_FILE=label Transfers control to the location specified by the label keyword (in the current command procedure) when the end of the file is reached. When the last record in the file is read, the OpenVMS Record Management Services (RMS) returns an error condition indicating the end-of-file (EOF). If the /END_OF_FILE qualifier is specified, the command interpreter transfers control to the command line at the specified label. If the /END_OF_FILE qualifier is not specified, control is given to the error label specified with the /ERROR qualifier when the end of the file is reached. If neither the /ERROR nor the /END_ OF_FILE qualifier is specified, then the current ON condition action is taken.
