Field Name Qualification
Field Name Qualification
To avoid ambiguity, several of the ENABLE commands require you to
use unique field names. If a field name is not unique, you must
qualify it. The syntax used to qualify a field name is as
follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| |
| { <group-name> [ .<group-name> ... ] .<field-name> } |
| { } |
| { KEY } |
| |
| |
| <group-name> |
| |
| is the name of a group in the record description of which |
| <field-name> is a part. A group is an item in a record |
| description whose level number (01, 02, ...) is higher |
| than the level number of the following item; a level |
| number of 01 is considered to be the highest level |
| number. |
| |
| If necessary, you can qualify <field-name> by including |
| more than one <group-name>. |
| |
| <field-name> |
| |
| is the name of the field requiring qualification. |
| |
| KEY |
| |
| is the courtesy key (Record Number field) of a relative, |
| entry-sequenced, or unstructured file. For a |
| key-sequenced file, KEY identifies the primary key. |
