RE: GREP - source members not containing...

["Lindstrom, Scott R." <Scott.Lindstrom@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In my experience as a UNIX admin grep works well to find a *line* that does or does not contain a string.  But to extrapolate that to a member would take more work that a single grep.

Subject: GREP - source members not containing...

Hello All,

I've looked thru a ton of GREP documentation and the archives
to find out how to find source members NOT having that text.
Specifically, I'm reviewing our QCLSRC member to see if the
member has "LOGCLP" and hoping to list only those not having
that command.
It would appear that the key is to use the exit side of the result
and I cannot find any example of how to do that. 
Does anyone have an example showing how to list members 
NOT having something?

This shell command adds to a file of all that have the phrase but I don't
know how to turn it into one that does not find the text.

qsh cmd('grep -l "LOGCLP" /qsys.lib/cdsrclib.lib/qclsrc.file/* > 
       /qsys.lib/rrpg.lib/myfile.file/myfile.mbr') 

Thanks for any reply,

Bill
