| ;p | Sets the specified user-designated property for the selected object(s). If “!” is indicated, the specified property is reset for the selected object(s). |
| ;d | Specifies that the output is to be written to the indicated document. The document must be already created. If the ;d option is omitted, it indicates that the output is to be written to the screen. |
| ;v | Sets the Verbose option. Additional object properties are reported. |

| ;vk | Sets the Keyword Verbose option. All keywords assigned to the selected objects are reported. |
| ;sh | Lists the objects from the Shadow Object Dictionary, rather than the Object Dictionary. |
| ;a | If a document name is specified, the ;a option indicates that the output is to be appended to the end of the document. If the ;a option is omitted, it indicates that the output is to replace the contents of the document specified in ;d option. |
| ;b | If a document name is specified, the ;b option indicates that you would like to browse the document file after the action is completed. The ;b option does not take effect if the ;d option was not used to specify an output document. |

Comments
This lists information about the objects specified.
Non-Verbose Option
If you do not use the verbose option (;v), ZOMList lists the object’s name, type, owner name and directory, as shown in the following example:
ObjectName ObjectType DirName OwnerName
Customers EntitySet zim
FilledBy Relationship zim
Supplier$SDB Document zim
Verbose Option
A verbose listing is produces by including the verbose option (;v). A sample listing is shown below:
ObjectName ObjectType DirName
Customers EntitySet ZIM zim0100
A CH DS D E l.l m N r s (1.1091)
FilledBy Relationship ZIM zim0109
A CH DS D E l.l m N r s (1.1756)
Supplier$SDB Document ZIM
A ch ce D E l.l m N r s (1.1852)
The extra two lines of output per object provide information about the property settings of the object. The second line, shown in isolation below, lists these properties as abbreviations. If the property is set, then the abbreviation is shown in uppercase. If it is false, it is shown in lowercase.The third line reveals several details about the object which can be useful when planning data distribution, as shown in the example below:
Zim0100 (1.1174)
The information shown includes:
| This is the actual operating system file which maps onto the object. This is shown for EntitySets, relationships with fields, and directories. It is useful when constructing your areas.zim and dirs.zim files. | |
| (#.#) | These are Zim internal numbers which uniquely identify the object. Normally, you do not use these numbers, but they are made available should the Zim technical support group need to know their values. |
Verbose Information Option
