Details

The TABLE statement specifies the CA-Datacom/DB table that you want to access. Datacom-table-name is the 32-character field that names an entity-occurrence of type RECORD in the CA-DATADICTIONARY. (For CA-Datacom/DB R8, the type is TABLE.)
The TABLE statement is required to create an access descriptor and the table name must be unique. If the table name is not unique, you can combine the TABLE statement with the DATABASE, DBSTAT, and TBLSTAT statements until a unique combination is identified.
If the table name contains special characters or national characters, enclose the name in quotation marks.
