DETAILS With this program it writes the database's procfile on the write [dsn("PROCFILE")] but after the program has finished the PROCFILE attribute (and default procfile) reverts to sirproc.srp. If you uncomment the two lines then the procfile does not revert to sirproc. I also tried an execute dbms "CONNECT DATABASE..." and this had the same effect as the PQL CONNECT DATABASE. EXAMPLE PROGRAM program PQL CONNECT DATABASE "COMPANY" SECURITY "COMPANY","HIGH","HIGH" IOSTAT rc write [dsn("PROCFILE")] c execute dbms "set procfile sir014" c write [dsn("PROCFILE")] end program WORKAROUND Use the SET PROCFILE code commented out in the above example
