Short:    Maps Fiasco Fields for easy script use
Author:   Tim Bradley
Uploader: tbradley@Valkyrie.net
Requires: rexxtricks, Fiasco
Version:  2.3 beta

DatabaseMap is a Fiasco Rexx script designed to ease programming other
Fiasco Scripts, especially ones using MUIRexx. it creates a list of
the name, type, and field size for all fields of a database, and the
values & numeric position of cycle fields. All inmbedded inan ARexx
comment so the resulting output can be included directly in a script
for convenient access. It has a FileRequestor to direct the output,
but defaults to "<fiasco database name>.map" in the same Directory as
the DB for even easier use. All you need to do is stick it in your
Fiasco-wide Macro Menu (Via the Settings -> User Menu menu option),
and activate it whenever you want a snapshot of what's up with your
database. It uses Rexxtricks Library (Which you OUGHT to have, but
it's on AmiNet if you haven't discovered it yet), and
rexxsupport.library, which is distributed with ARexx. NO Paths are
ssumed or other programs (Beyond Fiasco) are required. I've been using
DatabaseMap for around a year now with no problems, and thought it
might be of use for other Fiasco users. All standard disclaimers
apply, of course, and since cutting & pating is easier than writing
out NEW Copyright/disclaimers stuff:
 
$VER: "AFD-COPYRIGHT"(TM) English Version 1.2 (27.10.96)
