Random Selection
The #count parameter selects every "nth" record from the dataset, where "n" is equal
to count. This option is designed to allow "random" selection from the dataset. It
cannot be combined with the (startrecord/endrecord) option.
Test databases can be constructed from random samplings of production databases.
Using the #count parameter and the Put command we build a test dataset:
>base store
>get d-inventory(#15)
>put d-inventory,test
>exit
Suprtool/Open 5.7
{every 15th record is read}
{put to the d-inventory dataset in …}
{… Test database}
