VMRGRW processes the control file in two distinct phases: the compile phase and the execution phase.

During the compile phase, VMRGRW reads and analyzes all of the statements in your control file. If it detects an error during the compile phase, VMRGRW sends an error message and terminates without producing the report.

If no errors are detected during the compile phase, VMRGRW proceeds to the execution phase. During the execution phase, VMRGRW creates the report and sends it to the requested destination.
