record in DICTODF contains the record name and the object-type code “RD.”
•

record is described with a DEFINITION IS def-name clause; otherwise, DEF-
NUMBER contains the object number of the record itself.
•
RECORD-LENGTH−the length in bytes of the record.
•
FILE-NAME−this record's permanent HP file name, stored in FNAMECOLLAPSE
