Re: Set a file variable to another



I don't remember if the OP talked about their environment, but I know that at
least one response to this thread has mentioned the Micro Focus "EXTFH"
interface.

I thought that I would also mention the Micro Focus FCDREG compiler directive
and related
- FH--FCD
and
- FH--KEYDEF

special registers. If anyone is (OP or otherwise) is interested in getting more
information on how these can be used in Micro Focus (NOT other COBOL compilers)
to accomplish "run-time file switching", let me know and I anc provide some
references (or you can find these items in the online documentation).
