Description
The LIST STRUCTURE command displays the structure of the active table.
| Keyword | Description |
|---|---|
| IN <alias> | The IN <alias> clause is used to display the structure of an open table in a workarea that is not currently selected. Alias names may be assigned to tables with the USE command, or default to the table basename. |
| INDEX | The INDEX keyword is used to list index tag information along with the structure details. |
| TO <file> | The display output will be sent to the specified file. The filename can be substituted with a <expC>, enclosed in round brackets, which returns a valid filename. If no file extension is specified, then ".txt" will be used. The command SET PAGELENGTH governs the output file pagination and SET PAGEWIDTH defines the width of each page. Page numbers are centered on the bottom of the page according to width. |
| TO PRINT | The display output will be sent to a printer. The TO PRINT option will default to a local printer unless the command SET PRINTER TO \\SPOOLER is issued. The print request will then be spooled to the system printer, which is defined by the environment variable DB_PRINT. |
