HP ALLBASE/4GL Developer Reference Manual Vol. 1

Reporting From an HP TurboIMAGE/iX Database 

When you report from an HP TurboIMAGE/iX database, HP ALLBASE/4GL
accesses the database in the DM IMAGE *MODE currently set for the
database.  If no mode has been specified, it opens in the default
*READSHAR mode.  This mode should be satisfactory for most reports.

If you wish to set an access mode, the DM IMAGE *MODE command must be
executed before the report is executed.  If you wish to change a current
database access mode, the database must be closed before a second DM
IMAGE *MODE command will have an effect on the mode in which HP
ALLBASE/4GL accesses the database.

The HP ALLBASE/4GL report generator allows you to define linkages from HP
TurboIMAGE/iX data sets to KSAM data files or other HP TurboIMAGE/iX data
sets.  However, you cannot define linkages to SQL tables or select lists,
or serial data files.
