Tm, the client manual describes the SELECTIVE command. Or you can try the built-in help facility by running "dsmc help", then use the menu-driven interface to find the menu item for SELECTIVE.
You can find the client manual by going to the URL in my sig, then clicking on the link to "Information center". There you will find the client books in PDF and HTML formats.

The command line is your friend. "Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
