a summary report of all formats used. In addition to create a
report, a data set named WORK.FMTSUM and WORK.FMTSUMVAR is also available
which contains the same information.
 | Multiple data sets
can be specified through the DATNAME parameter. In this case,
separate out the data sets by spaces. | Example %fmtsum(fmtpath=c:\myfolder\with\format\catalog);
%fmtsum(fmtpath=c:\myfolder\with\format\catalog,
datname=templib.mydata);
