The password part defines user classes and passwords. Chapter 2 contains a description of
user classes and how they are used to protect data elements from unauthorized access.

.
user class number [ password ];
Parameters
user class number is an integer between 1 and 63, inclusive. User class numbers must be
unique within the password part.
password contains from 1 to 8 ASCII characters including lowercase characters and
excluding carriage return, slash, semicolon, and blank. Blanks are
removed by the Schema Processor and are not counted in the password
length. If you include blanks in your password, the following message is
displayed:
BLANKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED
Example
11 CREDIT;
12 BUYER;
14 CLERK;
Description
If the same password is assigned to multiple user class numbers, the highest numbered
class is used. It is not an error to omit the password, but the Schema Processor ignores
lines containing only a user class number.
