DCL Programming hints? (file lexical)

» close window

The Question is:

 
In a dcl script, I need find out the size of a file and if this file is of size
 zero then jump to another part of the program. None of the lexical functions
 seem to deal with this scenario, please could you advise
 
Thanx
 
Robert
 
 


The Answer is :

Try
 
	HELP Lexicals F$FILE_ATTRIBUTES Arguments
 
 
and look at:
 
	EOF
