Support : Dialog Search Aids : Successful Searching : PRINT : PRO Option

PRINT (continued)

PRINT Command Options (continued)

PRO (PRINT RESULTS ONLY) Option

Abbreviation: None
Command Format: PRINT S3/9/ALL PRO
PR S5/9/1-5 ARCHIVE 135 PRO ADDR AAJACK FROM EACH
Availability: DialogClassic Web
DialogLink 5
DialogClassic
DialogWeb—Command

The PRO option provides output without the normally included search history. When PRO is used, it will suppress files searched, sets selected, PRINTs requested, and date information for both search and Dialog Alert results. Example:

PRINT S3/9/ALL PROPrints all items from set S3 in Format 9 without showing the files searched, sets selected, or date information.

Address Option

Abbreviation:ADDR
Command Format:PRINT <Sn>/<format>/<items> ADDRESS <Axxxx>
Availability: DialogClassic Web
DialogLink 5
DialogClassic
DialogWeb—Command

You can request that your prints be mailed to an alternate address that you have created with the EDIT ADDRESS command. To do this, include the specification ADDRESS (or its abbreviation, ADDR), followed by the address name, in your PRINT command:

    PRINT S3/5/ALL ADDRESS ABMIS

After you enter the PRINT command, the address that you have specified displays.

• To specify an alternate address:

?print s2/5/all address ad013
P006: PRINT S4/5/ALL ADDR AD013  (items 1-46) estimated 
cost of $72.25
  Estimated postal surcharge ($0.10 per record per copy) 
is $4.60.
Alternate address: AD013 is used.

If you are printing the results of a search done in multiple databases with OneSearch, and are including the FROM option in your PRINT command, be sure that the ADDRESS specification is entered before FROM:

    PRINT S2/5/ALL ADDRESS AAJONES FROM 8

Note: You can use the SET ADDRESS command to SET an alternate address that will remain in effect during your entire search session. If an alternate postal address is set, PRINT commands will send results to that address. If an alternate address is set for email, use VIA EMAIL in the PRINT command to use that address. See SET ADDRESS for examples.
