Displays alias names for members of the dimension specified.
If no alias exists for a member, the member name only is displayed. The current alias table is used unless OUTALTSELECT is used to specify an alternative alias table.
Syntax
<REPALIAS dimensionname
Notes
<REPALIAS "" specifies the command for all dimensions.
REPALIAS can be used on unique member outlines or duplicate member outlines.
Some formatting commands (for example, RENAME) do not work with REPALIAS.
REPALIAS cannot be used in combination with the existing commands OUTMBRALT, OUTALTMBR, OUTALT, OUTALTNAMES, OR OUTMBRNAMES.
