Hi,

My application has many DBnames like

1)forecast
2)inventry
3)distribu

but all the 3 db access the same MAPS/DIALOGS .... its set using a CList command

CLIST FORECAST.... while doing this ... I directly get into Common Map with this db enabled.

Like wise it happens for the other 2 tooo.

Query,

Is there any way that I can switch the DBNAME ... runtime?

for instance

1If i have enabled Forecast dbname and in one of the option I want to go to Inventory Database.... how can it be achieved?

Plz help

Thanks

I hope I understand your question right. You would use DCUF SET DBNAME XXXXX at the CV prompt before executing the dialog. It will then be using that DB.

Hey

The query is to do it in run time.... like i want to enable it via selecting some menu... not thru the national task code

DCUF SET DBNAME XXXXX... may be it shud be called via some kick offs......

You can issue a DCUF command from inside a dialog by linking to RHDCUF00. See manual "Callable Services." You could then invoke a different DB by menu option.

Tim,

Thanks for the help. may i know which manual you are referrign to?

my code says

LINK PROG 'RHDCUF00' USING (RHDCUF00-INREC,
RHDCUF00-OUTREC).

Is this what you are referring? Please let me know how this works

The manual I am referring to is called "Callable Services." Chapter 4 is titled "Invoking DCMT and DCUF Commands from Programs." Your code looks correct. I will attempt to attach the manual to this post.
