FILES ARE IN 

The FILES ARE IN statement is used to specify a different default
location for data files, for example; a group, group.account, or account
other than that assigned by the operating system.  Each data file resides
in the newly specified default location.  However, explicitly stating the
group or the group.account in a data file name in a subsequent statement
overrides the location specified in the FILES ARE IN statement.

Syntax 

FILES [ARE] [IN] str_expr 

Parameters 

str_expr         A string expression that evaluates to a group.account.

Examples
