• The following command executes the CAPTURE utility on the fourth day of the
week (Wednesday):
IF NDAY_OF_WEEK=“4” THEN
#CAPTURE Q=FAST_Q NB TI=10 NFF
END
• The following example shows nested IF…THEN statements. Notice that there
are two IF statements, so each one must have its own END statement.
IF DAY_OF_WEEK=“MONDAY” THEN
MAP *6:=VOL1:APPL\WP
IF MEMBER OF CLERKS THEN
WRITE “Your report is due immediately!”
END
END
• Conditionals can be joined with commas, the word AND, or the word OR to form
compound conditionals.
The first line of the following IF…THEN statement is a compound conditional
that means “If it is the evening of the first day of the month”:
IF GREETING_TIME=“EVENING” AND DAY=“01” THEN
WRITE “The system will be backed up tonight.”
END
The following line is a compound conditional that means “If it is 11:59:59
p.m.”:
IF HOUR24=“23” AND MINUTE=“59” AND SECOND=“59”
• An IF…THEN statement can include several commands that must be executed if
the conditional is true.
The following example shows two commands that are executed on Tuesdays: a
WRITE command that displays a message about a staff meeting, and an
INCLUDE command that tells the login script to process any commands or
messages contained in the file SYS:PUBLIC\UPDATE.
IF DAY_OF_WEEK=“TUESDAY” THEN
WRITE “Staff meeting today at 10 a.m.”
INCLUDE SYS:PUBLIC\UPDATE
END
