Copies the selected records to a new file in binary format.

    Format

      /BINARY

1  –  Description

    The /BINARY qualifier specifies that records are output in binary
    format to the file specified by the /OUTPUT qualifier. (/OUTPUT
    is Alpha-only, however.) Use the Accounting utility to process
    this file later.

    See also the /BRIEF, /FULL, and /SUMMARY qualifiers, which
    process the selected records to produce a report.

    You cannot use the /BINARY qualifier with the /BRIEF, /FULL,
    or /SUMMARY qualifiers.

2  –  Examples

    1.$ ACCOUNTING /USER=SMITH /BINARY /OUTPUT=MYDISK:[ACCOUNTING]MYACC.DAT

      This example creates the file MYDISK:[ACCOUNTING]MYACC.DAT.
      It processes the file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT, copying all
      records for the user SMITH to the new file in binary format.

    2.$ ACCOUNTING /TYPE=PRINT -
      _$ /BINARY /OUTPUT=PRINT_INFO.DAT /REJECTED=NOT_PRINT_INFO.DAT

      This example creates two files in the default directory,
      PRINT_INFO.DAT and NOT_PRINT_INFO.DAT. It processes the
      file SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT, copying print records to
      PRINT_INFO.DAT and other records to NOT_PRINT_INFO.DAT. These
      records are in binary format.
