Base Table (-basetable)

Use Base Table (-basetable) with TableRange Size (-tablerangesize) to specify the range of tables for which you want to collect statistics.

Operating system and syntax	UNIX / Windows	-basetable n
Use with	Maximum value	Minimum value	Single-user default	Multi-user default
Database Server	32765	-32765	—	—

The starting table number in the range of tables for which you want to track access statistics.

Access to the statistics is handled through the Virtual System Tables (VSTs). Table statistics are stored in the _TableStat VST. To obtain table numbers, use the following ABL code:

FOR EACH _file:
DISPLAY _file._file-num _file._file-name.
END.

Running the preceding code results in the following output:

_File-Number File-Name
n1 table name1
n2 table name2
n3 table name3
