<<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. Steve Steve Dirickson WestWin Consulting (360) 598-6111 [log in to unmask]
