Greeting All

Anyone can give me example of batch to catch only particular case base on case ID (as unique one) ?
My case id field name : Case_ID. I want to catch some cases for only some specific cases.
Ex Case_id 10,13,12,100 on output.dat

Your help very appreciate.

Thank you

What do you mean by "catch"? Do you want to print out those cases? save them to the output file?

Hi Josh
i mean I want to get the output of entry result with particular case Id, all fields within dictionary.
So if I have 100 cases on output.txt with case _I'd 1 - 100.:
What if I want only cases with case_id: ex 1 , 3, 10,50,97. The output on entry mode only that case.
Thanks Josh

You can use the skip case command to skip the cases that you don't want:

Brother Josh
Thx you very much. Can this such logic I add in batch to:
- delete the case
- Separate the case by other fields like demographic field ex city, age etc
So the logic would be like : if city in 1, 2 then skip case
Thx and very appreciate

Brother Josh

>>You can use the skip case command to skip the cases that you don't want:
=============
if not case_id in 1, 3, 10, 50, 97 then skip case;
endif;
==============

Yes this logic perfectly well.

What if I want only case_id 1, 3, 10, 50, 97 ?

Thx

Remove the "not"

Brother Josh

I have tried, but its not work.
I have attached the zip file. Would you please see it.

//In DATA_ALL.DAT has 10 cases with ID (RESP_ID): 1,2,3,10,22,99,97,56,21,50
//I want only this ID : 1, 3, 10, 50, 97 DATA_OUTPUT.dat

You put that code in the application-level PROC, which gets run only one for your whole run. You need to put the code in a PROC that gets run for every case. See below:

Ahaa. Now it is worked. Thx my brother.
One question about this: in batch :
if I have a skewed data, I mean the data is unclean yet, ex bad record because off wrongly key in ; will effect to the output batch? thanx Gregory , .
