ZOMExec

Execute a user query against selected objects.

Syntax

ZOMExec object specification [option…]

Options

;k [!]The ;k option is used to assign a keyword to the selected object(s). If the keyword is already assigned, this assignment is ignored. If “!” is specified, the keyword assignment is removed for the object(s).
;p [!]Set the specified user-designated property for the selected object(s). If “!” is indicated, the specified property is reset for the selected object(s).
;d This 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.
;aIf 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.
;bIf 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.
;wIf a document name was not specified, the ;w option sets pause on while the information is being listed to the screen. The ;w option does not take effect if output is directed to a document using the ;d option.
;q The name of a query program created using the DPSMakeQuery command.
