Command Reference

This topic provides a summary of the Maintain Data language commands and system variables, grouped by primary use. It also describes some commands that are outside the language but can be used to manage Maintain Data procedures. It then describes each command and system variable in detail.

When you develop an application, you can generate Maintain Data commands by:

  • Using the Language Wizard in the Maintain Data Editor. The Wizard asks you questions about the logic you need to create, and automatically generates the required commands.
  • Coding the commands yourself in the Maintain Data Editor.
