Hi Hezi,

According to HELP (NATURAL 4.2 on z/OS), the LIST command may be used as follows:

Syntax:

```
      LIST object-type object-name-range
                                object-type object-name options
                                object-name-range range-options
             SEQUENTIAL object-type object-name-range options
             DIRECTORY object-name-range
             EXTENDED extended-type object-name-range
             NOCOPT extended-type object-name-range
             OPTIONS extended-type object-name-range
             DDM ddm-name

```

I think you should give more info about the environment you`re working in.  
Best regards,  
Nikolay
