$ DELETE/BEFORE
I assume that it defaults to "NOW" or f$time(), but I don't know that for sure. When it runs, it does not generate any error/warning messages.
(I have found this syntax is some pre-existing .com files and I am really curious about it)

Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Using the /BEFORE qualifier without a DATE/TIME
For future reference, this is a duplicate thread.
The HELP Text for DELETE (see HELP DELETE file /BEFORE) documents that the default is "TODAY" (the current date).

Re: Using the /BEFORE qualifier without a DATE/TIME
the default behavior of /BEFORE in (AFAIK) any command that supports is, is /BEFORE=TODAY
That is to say, midnight the previous day, or in DCL:
/BEFORE="''f$cvtime("",,"date")'
(btw, same goes for /SINCE, meaning everything since previous midnight)
hth
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Using the /BEFORE qualifier without a DATE/TIME
> any command [...]
Should be, but occasionally someone slips up:
alp $ ucm
Universal Serial Bus Configuration Manager, Version V1.0
UCM> show events /before
%CLI-W-VALREQ, missing qualifier or keyword value - supply all required values
\BEFORE\
I was told that this particular slip-up would
be fixed (and may have been already). In
general, the _proper_ behavior is to default
to TODAY.
