Specifies one or more of the following keywords. Each keyword indicates a type of special character to be ignored during the comparison. Keyword Ignored Characters CASE Directs CMS to ignore any differences between the case of alphabetic characters (A-Z, a-z). FORM_FEEDS Directs CMS to remove formfeed characters as it compares records from the two files. HISTORY Directs CMS to ignore element generation history as it compares a file with a generation. At least one of the files must be an element generation with the history attribute enabled. LEADING_BLANKS Directs CMS to remove leading blanks and tabs as it compares records from the two files. NOTES Directs CMS to ignore notes as it compares a file with a generation. At least one of the files must be an element generation with the notes attribute enabled. SPACING Directs CMS to compress multiple blanks and tabs into a single space as it compares records from the two files. TRAILING_BLANKS Directs CMS to remove trailing blanks and tabs as it compares records from the two files. If the HISTORY or NOTES keyword is specified, the history or notes text is not used for the comparison, and is also removed from the output generated by DIFFERENCES. For all other options, the output generated by DIFFERENCES contains the original records used for the comparison, instead of the modified form of the records designated by the /IGNORE qualifier.
