?EXECUTE Command
?EXECUTE Command
The ?EXECUTE command executes a compiled query file. The syntax of the
?EXECUTE command is:
compiled-physical-filename
is the name of the physical file containing the stored compiled query.
The ?EXECUTE command resets the internal table to the same state that existed at time
of compilation. The ?EXECUTE command changes the dictionary being used for the
duration of the execution. Internal table information from the compiled query file is used
until execution terminates, then Enform Plus uses the dictionary specified before you
entered the ?EXECUTE command.
If the stored compiled query requires a parameter value passed to it during execution, the
TACL PARAM command can be issued prior to executing the query. For information on
the PARAM command, see the Guardian User's Guide.
The ?EXECUTE command accepts only a physical file with a file code of 888. Enform
Plus assigns a file code of 888 when it creates a compiled query file.
