| BSY=stmtref |
On
record or file busy status, transfer to program
line number/statement label. |
| BSZ=num |
Block
size in bytes. |
| DIR=num |
Direction
indicator. This adjusts the record pointer by num
records, where a positive value advances the
pointer, a negative pointer reverses the pointer,
and a DIR=0 indicates no movement. This option is
not supported with use of the [WDX]
tag. |
| DOM=stmtref |
When
specified the DOM option indicates the statement
number (nnnn) to transfer to if the record
referenced by the directive is either missing (in
the case of read directives) or already exists
(in the case of write directives). |
| END=stmtref |
When
specified on a read directive indicates the
statement number (nnnn) to transfer to if the end
of the file is reached (Error #2). On a WRITE
directive, the END option causes a transfer if
the output file has reached its maximum size or
no more file space is available. |
| ERR=stmtref
|
The
ERR option specifies the statement to transfer to
should any error occur during the processing of
the directive. If used in conjunction with the
BSY=, DOM= or END= options, the other options
take precedence. |
| IND=num
|
Generally
used to define the record being accessed by its
record 32-bit record index.
- For Fixed
length keyed files, num
represents an offset into the data file
(first record has an index of 0, second
is 1, and so on). However, some record
indexes will be set aside by the system
to be used for key tables and may yield
gaps where the record indexes have been
used for keys.
- For Variable
length keyed files, num
represents a logical page address and
record index within that page. The page
address is contained in the top 24-bits
(high order 3 bytes) with a record index
within that page in the lower 8 bits. For
VLR files, the page address is the actual
physical address for the data page. For
EFF files, the page address is a logical
page number in the file.
- For TCP/IP
server files, num
represents an internal socket connection
to the client that can be used to
manually direct output to specific
sockets.
- Used with the
INPUT directive, IND=num
sets the starting position (column
number) of the cursor in the input field
|
| IOL=iolref |
Either
a string variable containing the object code of
an IOLIST, the name of the IOLIST (for files with
multiple record formats) or a statement reference
to an IOList (statement number/label). |
| ISZ=num |
File
open for access in binary mode. |
| KEY=string$ |
Record
key or Password to open
file. (KEY\="?" provides
list of databases (tables) defined in ProvideX
ODBC.) |
| KNO=num|name$
|
File
access key number (num) or name (name$),
where num is 0 based (0-15 for VLR/FLR
files, 0-255 for EFF files). |
| LEN=num |
The
LEN option can be used with the INPUT directive
to limit the length of the input data. If this
option is specified the INPUT directive, only the
number of characters specified by num
will be read. No further data will be accepted.
The input must be terminated by a <ENTER>
key, control key, or other function key. |
| NBF=num |
Dedicated
number of buffers. |
| NUL=stmtref |
On
no input, transfer to program line
number/statement label. |
| OPT=string$ |
File
open options. |
| REC=string$ |
Record
prefix (REC=VIS(string$)
can also be used). |
| RNO=num |
Record
number. |
| RTY=num |
Number
of times to retry (one second intervals). Default
is set via the 'WT'= System
Parameter. |
| SEP=char$ |
Default
field separator character. Hex or ASCII string
value. |
| SIZ=num |
Number
of characters to read: If negative,
num identifies the number of characters
to be read. If num is a positive number,
the read continues until num characters
are received.
Number of bytes to write:
If num exceeds the amount of data being
written from the variable, the data is padded
with nulls. |
| TBL=stmtref |
Data
translation table. |
| TIM=num |
Maximum
time delay to wait before returning an
record/file busy error.. |
