COMP Compare

RP=p Y | N | C | X | B

Y Yes. In the comparison log the differing records are listed in character format. The Y option is identical to C (see below).

N No. No record contents are listed in the comparison log. Only a display of the equal and unequal record numbers of files name1 and name2 will appear.

C The differing records will be listed in character format. The record contents will be truncated from column 132 (end of the print line).

X The differing records will be listed in hexadecimal format. The record contents will be truncated from column 132.

B The differing records will be listed in both character and hexadecimal format.

Standard: RP=Y

If the parameter RP=C/X/B is entered when comparing with field synchronisation (see page 7-), and should any differences occur in the two files, then the differences within a record will be flagged. The subparameter A (see below) will cause the differing records to be listed in their full length, and not just up to col. 132.
