&amp;lt;dt&amp;gt;Description&amp;lt;/dt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;dd&amp;gt;The IFCLST call (CLEAR LIST) performs a clear list function for a specified list on the current thread.&amp;lt;/dd&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;dd&amp;gt;108&amp;lt;/dd&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/dl&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Syntax==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;syntax&amp;quot;&amp;gt;IFCLST(RETCODE,LIST_SPEC,%VARBUF,%VARSPEC)&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;dl&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;dd&amp;gt;Not available&amp;lt;/dd&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/dl&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Specify the parameters in the syntax order shown above.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;tr class=&amp;quot;head&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;th&amp;gt;Parameter&amp;lt;/th&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;th&amp;gt;Description&amp;lt;/th&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;RETCODE&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;[O,i,r] The Model 204 return code is the required first parameter. The code is a binary integer value.&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;LIST_SPEC&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;[I,c,r] The list specification is a required input parameter that specifies the name of a list. Specify the list as a character string using the following format:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;syntax&amp;quot;&amp;gt;LIST &amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;listname&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; [{IN FILE &amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;filename&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; | GROUP &amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;groupname&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;}]&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;where:&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;var class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;listname&amp;lt;/var&amp;gt; is required and specifies the name of a particular list; &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;IN clause is optional and specifies a file or group context other than the default.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;var class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;filename&amp;lt;/var&amp;gt; specifies the name of a particular file context for the list. &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;var class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;groupname&amp;lt;/var&amp;gt; specifies the name of a particular group context for the list.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;note&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Note:&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; If the specified list exists, Model 204 removes all records from it. If the specified list does not exist and the IN FILE/GROUP clause is not coded, Model 204 creates and initializes a list within the context of the default file or group on the thread.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;%VARBUF&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;[I,c,o] The variable buffer is an optional input parameter that addresses a data area which accommodates up to 255 bytes of data per value. The buffer contains values that are defined by the %VARSPEC parameter, below, to be assigned to %variables. Specify a character string. For more information about %variables, see [[Using variables and values in computation#Declaring %variables and %variable arrays|Declaring %variables and %variable arrays]].&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td nowrap&amp;gt;%VARSPEC&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[I,c,o] The variable specification describes the format of the data that is contained in the %variable parameter, and lists the %variables to be assigned. %VARSPEC specifies the contents of the variable buffer, described above. Specify a character string that follows a LIST, DATA, or EDIT syntax.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;%VARSPEC is a required input parameter if %VARBUF is specified.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/td&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/tr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/table&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Usage notes==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Use the IFCLST call to remove records from an existing list, or to create a new cleared list.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The IFCLST call is the equivalent of the CLEAR LIST statement in SOUL in the host language multiple cursor environment. For information about the CLEAR LIST statement, see [[Lists#Clearing a list|Clearing a list]].&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The %VARBUF and %VARSPEC parameters can be used to pass a value for the MEMBER %variable when using the following syntax:&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;syntax&amp;quot;&amp;gt;IN GROUP &amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;term&amp;quot;&amp;gt;groupname&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; MEMBER %variable&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Coding example (COBOL)==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;code&amp;quot;&amp;gt;WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.&lt;br /&gt;
01  CALL-ARGS.&lt;br /&gt;
    05  RETCODE   PIC 9(5)  COMP SYNC.&lt;br /&gt;
    05  LISTSPEC  PIC X(23) VALUE &amp;quot;LIST FORD IN FILE CARS;&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

PROCEDURE DIVISION.&lt;br /&gt;
.&lt;br /&gt;
.&lt;br /&gt;
.&lt;br /&gt;
  CALL &amp;quot;IFCLST&amp;quot; USING RETCODE, LISTSPEC.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
