Overview

As of version A.03.00, Dictionary/3000 offers two new enhancements in the DICTDBM utility:

  • The capability of copying entities with the new COPY command.

  • The ability to enter elements multiple times within an HP Inform group.

COPY Command for Entities

For the COPY command, a category, class, element, file, group, location, or procedure is copied to a new like entity with a different name. The entity's associated child entities and/or its related entities can also be copied if desired. This enhancement adds productivity improvements for the user.

Multiple Entries for HP Inform

The same element can now be added to an HP Inform group more than once, as long as the physical file designation or the parent file is different making the record unique. This makes elements in HP Inform groups easier to use and more straightforward. (Inform/V version A.11.00 or later is needed with this enhancement.)

Documentation

The detailed information for these enhancements has been included in the Dictionary/3000 Documentation Update Notice which is also included in the latest edition of the Dictionary/3000 Reference Manual.
