Command Reference

This documentation describes the powerful and flexible set of Adabas direct call commands for performing database operations. These call commands provide a direct interface to the Adabas database when Natural or another fourth-generation database language is not being used.

Note:
Dataset names starting with DD are referred to in Adabas documentation with a slash separating the DD from the remainder of the dataset name to accommodate VSE/ESA dataset names that do not contain the DD prefix. The slash is not part of the dataset name.

The Adabas Command Reference documentation is organized in the following parts:

../graphics/gr_b_sm.gif Adabas Command Overview and Syntax Overview of Adabas commands and detailed description of the calling procedure with general programming considerations
../graphics/gr_b_sm.gif Adabas Commands Detailed description of Adabas commands
