Intermate i5, AS/400, iSeries manual Work with file sets

5. Work with file sets

The files in which overlay and report definitions are kept are subdivided into members. The idea is to enable individual users or user groups to maintain their own file-sets.

It is not possible to operate on more than one file set at a time in the system. This means, for example, that all overlays to be used in a particular report must be saved in the same file set as the report definition.

The program starts with the following screen:

		Work with File sets			APF410D
Position to				__________	File set
Type options, press Enter.
2=Change		4=Delete		9=User access	12=Overlays in file set
Opt	File set		Description
__	A		Files for A
__	BALT		File Set Balt Test
__	BE		Be
__	BROCK		Brock
__	CARMEN		Rot file set
__	CERDO		Cerdo
__	COLOR		Test of color fileset
__	CONCORDE		Overlays for concorde print
__	DEMO		demo
__	EURO		Overlay for euro
__	EX		EX
__	FARBEN		Farbe druck
__	GARDEN		Garden		More...
F3=Exit		F5=Refresh		F6=Create F12=Cancel

You may now enter the name of the file-set you wish to create, update or delete.

Since the file-sets in the system are file members, they must meet the requirements to member names, i.e. the first character must be within the range A-Z. The succeeding characters can be A-Z, "_" (underscore), 0-9 or blanks, with the restriction that blanks may only appear at the end of the name.

If you press F6=Create, you get the following screen:

Create		File set		APF411D
File set name	. . . : TST_______
Description .	. . . . ___________________________________________
Printer class	. . . . _		1	= Black/White laser
			2	= Color laser
			3	= Label printer

Do you want to use duplex print	_ (Y N)
(only active for HP LaserJet IID, IIID, 4D and HP4500D)
F3=Exit	F12=Cancel

If you have chosen a file set which already exists you may delete it or change the descriptive text associated with it. If you have chosen a new name you must also enter
