        <<Given that a file equation like "FILE REPORT;DEV=MYLP;CCTL" has
been issued prior to running a program, is there anyway to get the value of
the DEV= clause (in this case MYLP) from inside the program, after the file
has been opened?  I've looked at the FFILEINFO intrinsic and could not find
a readily apparent way of doing it.>>


Parse the output from :FILEQ. I have old-style Transact source (i.e. using
'let offset' instead of direct subscripting) if you want it.
