Parameters

entry-number[,...]

   Specifies the entry number (or a list of entry numbers) of jobs
   to be deleted. If you specify only one entry number, you can
   omit the parentheses. If you do not specify a queue name, you can
   delete entries from multiple queues.

   The system assigns a unique entry number to each queued print
   or batch job in the system. By default, the PRINT and SUBMIT
   commands display the entry number when they successfully queue
   a job for processing. These commands also create or update the
   local symbol $ENTRY to reflect the entry number of the most
   recently queued job. To find a job's entry number, enter the
   SHOW ENTRY or the SHOW QUEUE command.


queue-name[:]

   Specifies the name of the queue that contains the jobs that you
   want to abort. The queue name can refer either to the queue
   to which the job was submitted or to the queue where the job
   is executing. The queue-name parameter is optional syntax;
   however, when you specify a queue name, the OpenVMS system uses
   it to verify an entry in the specific queue before stopping and
   deleting the entry.
