Field Descriptions 

Standard Command Name.  Enter the standard name of the logic command you
want to disable or define a synonym for.  Appendix A contains a list of
logic commands.

Site Synonym Name.  Enter the synonym to be used on this system to
represent the command.  The synonym can have up to eight uppercase
alphabetic characters.  HP ALLBASE/4GL automatically converts your entry
to uppercase.

Permitted at this site.  Enter Y to allow general use of the command.
Enter N if you don't want the command to be used on this site.

Additional Information 

Command name synonyms are not transferred with the application if you
transport an application to another site with the unload/load facilities.
You must define command name synonyms and permit or restrict use of the
logic commands at each site.

All applications at each site must use the same synonyms.  An application
using different synonyms may fail.  Similarly, removing a synonym from
your system may cause applications using that synonym to fail.  Existing
generated logic is not affected by changes to synonyms, or by disabling a
command.

Disabled Commands.     

If you disable a command, application developers can still enter the
disabled command in the process details or function details screens in
the developer application.  However, HP ALLBASE/4GL will not generate
logic blocks containing the disabled commands.

Disabling a command deletes the synonym for that command if you have
defined one.
