<div>Greetings Listers:</div> <div> </div> <div>I am under the impression/assumption that under the following conditions a second attach is made to the database: Powerhouse 7.10e DEC SQL V6.1-13:</div> <div> </div> <div>Example #1:</div> <div> </div> <div>FILE OBLIGATION ALIAS OB</div> <div> </div> <div>I assert that it's (almost) the same as:</div> <div> </div> <div>Example #2:</div> <div> </div> <div>FILE OBLIGATION DESIGNER</div> <div> </div> <div>FILE OBLIGATION designer alias obl</div> <div> </div> <div>where you must have two separate attaches.</div> <div> </div> <div>Can anyone please clear up any misapprehension? A colleague here says that the first is only a 'pointer' (his term) situation and no second attach happens.</div> <div> </div> <div>TIA</div> <div> </div> <div>JP</div><p>
