Hi

I have fex and com file in our "work" directory which has huge amounts of space. Can submit both of them and it runs just file but it keeps placing the output report file in my personal directory. How can i specify where to place it? (need it at work since it truncates data due to limited space on my personal directory).

Thanks

Focus 6.9 VMS

p.s. i tried to edit hold parameters :

ON TABLE HOLD AS SORT_DSK:[HNWRK]:CDE0005
but get error:
>>>>(FOC1451) FILEDEF MISSING FOR EXTERNAL FILE : RDBFIL

Edgare,

You need to allocate the file using this command (before the HOLD command):

  
 CMS FILEDEF SORT_DSK DISK SORT_DSK DATA x (Where x=virtual disk AS A/B or C )
-RUN

 TABLE FILE  
 ...
 ON    TABLE HOLD AS SORT_DSK FORMAT (ALPHA/BINARY/INTERNAL)
 END


By the way, the virtual disk should be attach first (logging profile)

Hope it will helps you

Regards,
Michel

Thanks that part worked and i also tried :
SET DEFAULT=WORK
which also worked Smiler

I have another question here is excerp from the log:

MERGE: RECORDS= 1818734 LINES= 1818734

NUMBER OF RECORDS IN TABLE= 1818734 LINES= 1818734

HOLDING...
>>>>

it holds the file but truncates it down to 1mb ... should be around a gig ... why is it doing this? What can cause it? is it temp file directory ? (if so how to do i specify where to store the temp file?) Is it something else? (file is placed in work directory has alot of free space so it snot space issue there ...)

Thanks!
