LoadListFromTable

Use this job level rule to load a table specified in your FSISYS.INI file’s Data control group into a link list and place the handle of the list into the GVM variable you specify.

Syntax

;LoadListFromTable;;;

This rule has these parameters:

Parameter

Description

GVM_LISTNAME

The name of the GVM variable in which the handle of the list should be stored.

INI_TABLE_OPTION

The name of the option in the Data control group in the INI file you want the system to load. This option should specify the name of the table.

COMMENT_CHARACTER

A single character which indicates the comment character. Lines beginning with this character are not loaded into the link list.

Example

;LoadListFromTable;;POLTYPES FORM_SCHED_POL_TYPE *;

If your FSISYS.INI file has these settings:

< Data >

TablesPath = ..\MSTRRES\TABLES\

Form_Sched_POL_Type = POLTYPE.TBL

The LoadListFromTable rule loads the POLTYPE.TBL file into a list whose handle is stored in a GVM variable named POLTYPES. Any line in the file that starts with an asterisk (*) is omitted from the list.
