Description

The CATALOG() function returns the name of the currently active catalog file. If no catalog file is in use, the CATALOG() function returns a null string.

A catalog file is an object used to group and access files that pertain to a single application. Catalogs allow you to define your work environment by adding only those files that are needed. The Recital Information Center displays catalogs of files by listing filenames in "panels" of the following categories: Data, Text, Form, Report, Label, and Program.


Example

set catalog to customer
?catalog()
customer.cat
