13.3.7 Support for Indexed and Relative Files
DCPS now allows you to print files that utilize an indexed, relative, or
sequential file organization. In DCPS versions V1.1 through V1.3, you received a
BADFILEORG error if you attempted to print an indexed or relative file.
Indexed and relative files are accessed sequentially, by their primary index and
relative record number respectively. This new capability is consistent with the
TYPE command.
Note
Indexed and relative files frequently contain binary data. Attempting to
print files containing such unprintable binary data can give unpredictable
and probably undesirable results.
13.3.8 ALL-IN-1 Compatibility Kit Removed
The ALL-IN-1 compatibility kit, and the option to install it, is no longer part of
the DCPS kit for OpenVMS VAX systems. The ALL-IN-1 product now provides
the printer support that was provided by the compatibility kit in earlier versions
of DCPS.
The compatibility kit was never necessary for OpenVMS Alpha systems.
13.3.9 DCPS User Card Removed
The DCPS kit no longer includes a User Card, either in hardcopy format or
online. If you installed a previous version of DCPS, the online version of this
card (SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP.EXAMPLES.DCPS]DCPS-USER-CARD.PS) will
exist in the DCPS examples directory. The information on the card is still correct,
though no longer complete.
