DICTIONARY 3000

>ALTER NAME 

Changes the generated source code to include PASCAL string constants for
the file names extracted from the Dictionary.

Prompts 

The following prompt is issued when the command-subcommand ALTER NAME is
entered:

     GENERATE NAMES AS STRING CONSTANTS (N/Y)>

GENERATE NAMES AS STRING  Enter Y if PASCAL string constants are to be
CONSTANTS (N/Y)>          generated for the specified file names
                          extracted from the Dictionary.  DICTPDE assumes
                          that string constants are not to be generated
                          for the file names unless Y is entered in
                          response to this prompt.

                          Pressing [[RETURN]] in response to this prompt
                          indicates that string constants are not to be
                          generated.

Discussion 

ALTER NAME allows you to generate string constants for the specified file
names extracted from the Dictionary.  The string constants are generated
for the specified file name only.  If the specified file is a parent
file, string constants are generated for the parent file name only.
String constants are not generated for the child files which are related
to the specified parent file.

Example 

>alter name

GENERATE NAMES AS STRING CONSTANTS    String constants will be
(N/Y)> y
                                      generated for the subsequent
                                      files generated.
