1  –  Arguments

    ALL

       Causes DEC DATATRIEVE to copy into the specified command file
       the definitions of one or more dictionary objects in your default
       dictionary directory.

       The keyword ALL is optional when used with the types of object
       definitions such as PLOTS or DOMAINS.

       The keyword ALL is required, however, when used with the EXTRACT
       ALL [ON] file-spec syntax.

    DOMAINS

       Allows you to extract all the domains, plots, procedures,
       records, or tables from your current default Oracle
       CDD/Repository directory.

    file-spec

       Is the OpenVMS specification of the RMS file to contain the
       definitions. A complete file specification has the following
       format:

       node-spec::device:[directory]file-name.type;version

    path-name

       Is the given name, full dictionary path name, or relative path
       name of the dictionary object whose definition you want to copy.
       If you specify more than one dictionary path name, use a comma to
       separate each one from the next. EXTRACT accepts both DMU and CDO
       style path names.

2  –  Example

       Extract all the definitions in a dictionary directory to create a
       backup file:
