If you start the Program Editor from the command line, you can use the following command tails:
| Command Tail | Description |
|---|---|
|
-DB |
Specify the database name. This allows the default database to be overridden |
|
-PROG |
Specify the program name. The Program Editor is set up to only edit the specified program |
|
-ID |
Specify the developer's initials. The specified initials are stored with the program for management purposes |
|
-SHARE |
For multi-user environments, this allows more than one developer to work on the database at the same time. Only use this option if you need it, because there is a performance penalty |
For example, to change the program CUSTOMER on the database TIME2, supplying the initials XYZ, and allowing other developers to access the database, you would type the following on the command line:
PROGMAKE -DB TIME2 -ID XYZ -PROG CUSTOMER -SHARE
