Area level DBUTLTY control gives you the option of performing a mix of utility functions on different areas of a database at the same time, by moving control from a Single User environment to a Multi-User Facility environment.
Although the majority of the DBUTLTY functions that work with data have database or area level options, prior to Version 11.0 the control was at the database level. For example, control at the database level, when initializing a data area, required the Single User utility to get full update control of the database containing the area. This meant that no other area in the database could be initialized or loaded at that time. With area level DBUTLTY control, certain DBUTLTY functions now support a MULTUSE=YES option that moves the controls from a Single User to a Multi-User Facility environment and, in addition to the full database, apply to the area level.
This feature requires that the database be optimized in the Multi-User Facility, which is done by not having the ACCESS Multi-User startup option specified as NOOPT for this database.
