Title: redefining keys
Post by: Thomas Bock on February 24, 2022, 07:25:45 AM

I removed kno #2 and #3 from a file and added a new kno #2. After a click on "Update File" that kno has the name of the old kno #2.
The segment notation is correct but the name is wrong. How can I get rid of it?

You should be able to reset the name in the Nomads Data Dictionary Key Definition utility.

I did so and the DD shows no names any more. But fin(1,"FILE_CREATE") still returns the old names.

Did you press Update Physical File after changing the key names as the FIN function uses the file information not the external dictionary.

If so, and you still have key names showing up, please contact our European distributor so they can open a support ticket with us.
