    print-list

       Is a list of field names; it can also include only the print list
       elements SKIP, NEW_PAGE, and inner print lists. You can control
       the format in which DEC DATATRIEVE displays values from the
       specified fields with the USING edit-string modifiers described
       in the Results section of the PRINT command section.

    ALL

       When used alone following LIST, causes the records in the current
       collection to be displayed or written to the specified file or
       device.

       When used with a print list, ALL causes the print list to be
       evaluated for each record in the current collection.

       When used with the OF rse clause, ALL is optional. You can use
       it to clarify the LIST statement, but, regardless of the presence
       of ALL, DEC DATATRIEVE evaluates the LIST statement once for each
       record in the record stream formed by the RSE.

       When the print list begins with an inner print list, ALL is
       required to establish the proper context in which to resolve
       references to the items in the hierarchical list.

    rse

       Is a record selection expression that creates the record stream
       DEC DATATRIEVE uses to evaluate the elements of the print list.

    file-spec

       Is the file specification to which you want to write the output
       of the statement. A complete file specification has the following
       format:

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

    *.prompt-name

       Is a prompting value expression that prompts you for a device
       name or file specification to which you want to write the output
       of the statement.
