Description

The DIR command displays filenames in the current directory and path (see SET PATH) matching the specified <skeleton>. The total number of files matching the <skeleton>, their total size and the remaining drive space in Megabytes are also displayed.

  • DES3 Encryption status, i.e. (DES3) if table is encrypted
  • Number of Records
  • Last Update date
  • Size in bytes
  • Dictionary status, i.e. Yes or None
  • Triggers status, i.e. Yes or None
  • Security status, i.e. Yes or None
  • Total size of tables in Megabytes
  • Number of tables
  • Drive space remaining in Megabytes
