This is the LD file type in udt I have only ever used these for directory files that need large numbers of records in them.

But I'm guessing you had *separate* VOC entries for AR, AP etc. At the OS level they were under one sub-directory but inside of PI they were separate FILEs. What I'm talking about - what I think Pick has - is where you have - at the *PICK* level, one BP FILE, and then loads of subfiles in it. Which is stored (by default) as one directory with sub-directories at the OS level. In other words, in PI you're talking about the OS level - nothing to with PI. In Pick you're actually IN PICK, it's nothing to do with the OS. > >--Larry > Cheers, Wol > >-----Original Message----- >From: [email protected] >[mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Anthony W. >Youngman >Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2010 3:08 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [U2] Unidata Silly Gripe > >In message <031801cacc3b$feb964a0$fc2c2d...@com>, Symeon Breen ><[email protected]> writes >>Just a different way of doing it i suppose - i do have separate sub >>directories but they are under the dev account and not under say BP > >Just a little point - bearing in mind I've never used genuine Pick but I >think Larry et al are describing *TYPICAL* Pick usage.
