Changes the mode of access to the primary data base.

Syntax


  M[ODE]= mode number
For example: 

  >MODE=3
Where mode number = 3

Parameter

mode number

is an integer from 1 to 8 representing the access mode you want to use.

Discussion

You can use this command to change your mode of access to the primary data base. If the MODE= command is entered, QUERY first closes the current primary data base before attempting to open the data base with the new access mode.

Example


  >MODE=6
  >AD INVENTORY
  ILLEGAL ACCESS
  >MODE=3
  >AD INVENTORY
  STOCK#          =>>6650D22S
  ONHANDQTY       =>>11
  SUPPLIER        =>>H & S SURPLUS
  UNIT-COST       =>>1395
  LASTSHIPDATE    =>>121585
  BINNUM          =>>3

  STOCK#          =>>//
  >
In the example above, mode 6 is specified. Since mode 6 does not allow write access to the primary data base, the user must change to a mode which allows such access. Then QUERY allows the addition of an INVENTORY entry.
