Subfile Enhancement

[Ken Langendock]

I think you should allow the DESCRIPTION option on any subfile regardless of
NODICT or not for documentation purposes. Even though it will not appear in
the subfile, it is still useful.
 
Any chance we can see this "list" once it is finalized????

Interesting. I've never seen this one before. I don't think we would allow
the description if it's a NODICT subfile but the dictionary certainly has a
DESCRIPTION option on the FILE and RECORD statements. I don't know how
difficult it would be to add to the subfile equivalents and the routines.
I'll add it to the list.
 
Thanks
 
Bob

Bob,
 
Continuing with your original request for enhancement requests;
 
Add a DESCRIPTION option to the SUBFILE statement within QUIZ and QTP that
could be read by QSHOW.
 
Where would you store the information? If it has a dictionary, within the
minidictionary file. If it doesn't, at the start of the file with a leading
integer value that points to the actual start of data OR do not allow this
option.
