SET.TITLE (SETT)
The following example will create a physical file that will be given the name entered by the
user. The file is then loaded by extracting SREP records into it. Assuming this is all the
code in the Report, at the end of the Report the file will be kept, and it will contain the
details extracted from SREP.
The next example will open the existing physical file that it is identified by the name
entered by the user. The file is then sorted into name order. Assuming this is all the code in
the Report, at the end of the Report the file will be kept, with records sorted in ascending
order of salesrep name. In the code, a dummy DETERMINE; command is used to associate
the file layout B with the SREP Component. In a normal situation, you would probably use
such a DETERMINE; command loop to perform a required function; for example, printing
the sorted file.
