Causes FILEDATA to select resident and nonresident files and to display catalogue information for the files.

When the CATALOGUE modifier is used with an ATTRIBUTES request, FILEDATA displays the catalog information for each resident and nonresident file selected. For resident files, this information includes whether or not the file is cataloged.

When the CATALOGUE modifier is used with a CODEFILEINFO request, FILEDATA displays the catalog information for each resident code file selected. This information includes whether or not the file is cataloged.

When the CATALOGUE modifier is used with a FILENAMES request or an ARCHIVEINFO request, FILEDATA displays the catalog information for each resident or nonresident file selected. Note that this is the same output as that generated by the CATALOGINFO request.

When the CATALOGUE modifier is used with a HEADERCONTENTS request, FILEDATA displays the catalog information, in hexadecimal format, for each resident and nonresident file selected.

When the CATALOGUE modifier is used with a NOREPORTS request, catalog information for files is collected and put into the new database so that later requests can report the information.

CATALOGUE is invalid with the CONTAINER, TAPE, and WRAPPEDFILES modifiers.
