The "scope" component of the "general server scope," which affects several bulk processing methods if they are called with no explicit scope. The initial value of the scope is NIL.

Examples

This example illustrates how various Scope values affect the extent of a recall operation:

Copy

1// RECALL FOR Last == "Smith" REST
2oDB:ForBlock := {|| Last == "Smith"}
3oDB:Scope := DBSCOPEREST
4oDB:Recall()
5// RECALL WHILE Last == "Smith" NEXT 10
6oDB:WhileBlock := {|| Last == "Smith"}
7oDB:Scope := 10
8oDB:Recall()
