I have seen code to call INDEX.FLUSH typically as follows:

 FILE.NAME=CUSTOM.EXPORT.SPECS'

 VOL=XLATE("SYSTABLES", FILE.NAME, 1, "X")

 APP=XLATE("SYSTABLES", FILE.NAME, 3, "X")

 MED=XLATE("SYSVOLUMES", VOL, 1, "X")

 FILE.INFO=FILE.NAME:'*':APP:'*':MED

 CALL INDEX.FLUSH(FILE.INFO, "")



However, for a couple of volumes in our AREV system SYSVOLUMES field 1 is something like "12:13:09  07 APR 93", whereas field 2 is something like "H:\AREV\SECURITY".



I have two volumes like this, for most other volumes field 1 is the volume name and field 2 is the volume path, such as "DEVELOP" and "H:\AREV\DEVELOP".



My question is, is the problem with SYSVOLUMES, or in the above code should I substitute field 2 in the 3rd XLATE, or should I just call index.flush with the filename only as the parameter?

<QUOTE>It is easier just to just the filename - the full name including the volume path has been deprecated.
