XRECLINE Statement

XRECLINE (cross-reference record line) allows you to include and format record block information on the Cross-Reference Report. The record description on the report contains the same information as a record block in the data structure diagram. If you do not use the XRECLINE statement, CA IDMS Schema Mapper provides only the record name and location in the Cross-Reference Report. The reports in Exhibit 2.6 show a record description before and after the addition of XRECLINE statements.

The XRECLINE statement defines the format of the record description line by line, listing the field names, blank fields, labels, and blank lines to be included in the record description. See Exhibit 3.Exhibit 2.st of all possible field names that you can enter in an XRECLINE statement.

Note: XRECLINE is a global parameter statement. Once specified, it modifies every record description in the Cross-Reference Report.
