WORKDIR
WORKDISC
WIRKDISK

Syntax:
WORKDIR directory-name
WORKDISC directory-name
WORKDISK directory-name

Placement:
The WORKDIR, WORKDISC, and WORKDISK commands are interchangeable.
Place one of these before the following commands:

  • INPUT
  • PRINTER
  • TITLE
  • KEYRANGE
  • SORT
  • REPORT

Discussion:
WORKDIR specifies a directory location for temporary files that are created when preparing reports. Follow the WORKDIR command with the three-character directory name where you wish to located temporary work files.

If you do not specify a location for temporary work files.
The Reporter puts work files on the directory where the Reporter command file is located and in TMP.

Example:

WORKDIR ABC
INPUT CUSTOMER
SORT ON STATE,A;TOTAL.PAST.DUE,D 
REPORT
PRINT CUST.NAME;STATE;PAST.DUE
