E@DBKFNDEQ

Name

The E@DBKFNDEQ call has the following format:

DN@<Logical>(E@DBKFNDEQG)

where <Logical> identifies the database file and index to use to perform the E@DBFINDPRVRNG call.

Description

E@DBKFNDEQ inquires on the Index for the key fields that match the values you set in the record retrieval variables (D@ fields) corresponding to the index key fields. This call works as the E@DBFINDEQ (E@DBFINDEQ) call works, but E@DBKFNDEQ returns only the keys from the Index.

Input Values

Field Description
<Logical> <Logical> identifies the database file and index to use to perform the E@DBFINDEQ call.
Record retrieval variables (also known as D@ and D# fields) You must populate the index key fields used to locate the record before using this call.

Return Values

Field Description
D<prefix>@NOTFOUND

Each routine sets the logical value <FileName>-NOTFOUND or <FileName>-FOUND based on the outcome of the read process.

The Find routines set D<prefix>@NOTFOUND to FALSE if a record is found, TRUE if a record is not found, or E@KEY@FOUND if the keys are found.
