Hi Bruce,

Try:
	setdict phd_location:pdschema
	qshow

You should be able to see the files have open names of phd00, phd01 etc 



Out of interest, what is PADS?  I was considering writing some ph programs to write programs which would check phd01 etc to validate files & elements that i wanted to use.  Is this something similiar?

We're trying to port PADS (Powerhouse Application Development System) from
version 710G to version 830D4 under OpenVMS on an Alpha processor.  After
recompiling all of the PADS programs, most functions appear to work.
However, when using the PADGREP.QZS program we get the error:

*E* The actual record length doesn't match the length in the dictionary.

The error is generated by the PADS-PHD-OBJECTS select.  PADS-PHD-OBJECTS
points at the PHD01.PHD dictionary file.  It would appear the internal
layout of the PHD01 dictionary file has changed between 710G and 830D4.

Does anyone have a fix for this or information concerning the internal
structure of the PHD01.PHD dictionary file?

Thanks,

Bruce C.
