Purging a Change File If you want to purge any existing change files, you can specify the NEW or PURGECF options with the BASE command; if you do not specify an option, NEW is assumed by default. The NEW and PURGECF options purge any existing change files. In interactive mode, however, before any file is purged you are prompted to verify that this is indeed the action you wish to take. In batch mode, a NEW or no option automatically purges the change file. If you specify the OLD option and the old change file cannot be used for any reason, DBChange Plus returns an error. The complete syntax and description of the BASE command are provided in chapter 3.
