How to Save a Set of Commands as a Qfile › Deleting a Qfile

Deleting a Qfile

When you delete a qfile, CA OLQ uses the following:

• Deletes the qfile definition in the data dictionary
• Removes the name of the definition from the list of qfiles on the Qfile screen

In this example, you delete a qfile using the Qfile Processing screen.

Start on the Qfile Processing screen. To get there, type qfile in the command line of any screen.

Select Delete and select the SALARY qfile.

      CA OLQ Release nn.n                          *** QFILE Processing ***
