261.0. "USE-Statement - Master-File-Definition" by UNTADI::TEICHREBER () Mon Aug 28 1989 04:54

USE-Statement - here : one Masterfile-Definition for two physical files
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In the FOCUS-documentation is the following example described :

    USE
    EMPL024.DAT AS EMPLOYEE
    EMPL025.DAT AS EMPLOYEE
    EMPL026.DAT AS EMPLOYEE
    END

Now my problem : At DCL-Level I'd defined :

    :
    NICE$DISK               = IS$DISK922
    NICE$DEFAULT            = NICE$DISK:[NICE.V010.]
    NICE$S_DAT              = NICE$DEFAULT:[TEST.DAT]
    NICE$F_NDB_ACTION_OPEN  = NICE$S_DAT:ACTION_LIVE.DAT
    NICE$F_NDB_ACTION_CLOSE = NICE$S_DAT:ACTION_CLOSED.DAT
    ACTION_O                = NICE$F_NDB_ACTION_OPEN
    ACTION_C                = NICE$F_NDB_ACTION_CLOSE
    :

In our FOCUS-Profile I'd defined

    :
    FILEDEF ACTION_O DISK ACTON_O
    FILEDEF ACTION_C DISK ACTON_C
    :

When I now try to use the USE-statement

    USE
    ACTION_O AS ACTION
    ACTION_C AS ACTION
    END

FOCUS points always only to <current_diretory>:ACTION_L.DAT.

How I may inform FOCUS to points to ACTION_O (means the physically file for
which ACTION_O is defined) ? Has anybody a solution for this problem ?

Thanks.
