The Clear  Data  Queue command  clears a  non-keyed data  queue of  all
entries.   A keyed data queue may  be cleared of a specific  key or all
entries.  The command uses the API QCLRDTAQ.

A typical command would be:

             CLRDTAQ    DTAQ(xxx)

Any existing entries in the data queue would be cleared.

A  keyed data queue may only be cleared  for the entries that match the
specified key.    If KEYORD(GT)  is  specified with  a blank  key,  the
entire data queue is cleared.
