LIST using field number instead of field names

You can use *A1 *A2 *A3 for any field.

But have you checked your DICT for the file in question?

We are talking about LIST command from jshell - arn't we ?

So you can do :

LIST FBNK.CATEG.ENTRY

and you'll see all field that are defined in F.CATEG.ENTRY]D (or DICT F.VATEG.ENTRY) in record @.

The commands
LIST FBNK.CATEG.ENTRY ACCOUNT.NUMBER COMPANY.CODE AMOUNT.LCY
and
LIST FBNK.CATEG.ENTRY *A1 *A2 *A3

will show the same.


The I_F-file is the insert for jBase routines, assigning variables (= field name) to numbers that represent the displacement of this field within the physical record.
