Suggested Tools for Accessing TurboIMAGE/XL Data For Turbo CONNECT users with a limited amount of ALLBASE/SQL experience, a high-level query and reporting tool like ALLBASE/Query provides easy access to TurboIMAGE/XL data from ALLBASE/SQL. For Turbo CONNECT users with more ALLBASE/SQL experience or for those who wish to learn more about ALLBASE/SQL, ISQL can be used. Appendix D explains how to get started with ISQL.

The characters must be entered in the order shown; however, you can enter the characters in either uppercase or lowercase. For example: COMMAND can be entered as any of the following: command Command COMMAND italics In a syntax statement or an example, a word in italics represents a parameter or argument that you must replace with the actual value. In the following example, you must replace FileName with the name of the file: COMMAND FileName punctuation In a syntax statement, punctuation characters (other than brackets, braces, vertical bars, and ellipses) must be entered exactly as shown. In the following example, the parentheses and colon must be entered: (FileName):(FileName) underlining Within an example that contains interactive dialog, user input and user responses to prompts are indicated by underlining. In the following example, yes is the user's response to the prompt: Do you want to continue? >> yes { } In a syntax statement, braces enclose required elements. When several elements are stacked within braces, you must select one. In the following example, you must select either ON or OFF: {ON } COMMAND {OFF} [ ] In a syntax statement, brackets enclose optional elements. In the following example, OPTION can be omitted: COMMAND FileName [OPTION] When several elements are stacked within brackets, you can select one or none of the elements.

[OPTION ] COMMAND FileName [Parameter] Conventions (continued) [...] In a syntax statement, horizontal ellipses enclosed in brackets indicate that you can repeatedly select the element(s) that appear within the immediately preceding pair of brackets or braces. In the example below, you can select Parameter zero or more times. Each instance of Parameter must be preceded by a comma: [,Parameter][...] In the example below, you only use the comma as a delimiter if Parameter is repeated; no comma is used before the first occurrence of Parameter: [Parameter][,...] |...| In a syntax statement, horizontal ellipses enclosed in vertical bars indicate that you can select more than one element within the immediately preceding pair of brackets or braces. However, each particular element can only be selected once. In the following example, you must select A, AB, BA, or B. The elements cannot be repeated. {A} {B} |...| ... In an example, horizontal or vertical ellipses indicate where portions of an example have been omitted. Å In a syntax statement, the space symbol Å shows a required blank. In the following example, Parameter and Parameter must be separated with a blank: (Parameter)Å(Parameter) The symbol indicates a key on the keyboard. For example, RETURN represents the carriage return key. CTRLchar CTRLchar indicates a control character. For example, CTRLY means that you press the control key and the Y key simultaneously.
