Submitted By: Steven R. Berman, Northrop, Inc.
Operating System: VAX/VMS V4.6, V4.7, V5.0
Source Language: VAX FORTRAN
Keywords: FORTRAN, Utilities - VMS
Software Requirements: FORTRAN Compiler
Memory Requirements: 724KB
Abstract: A technique for setting the /NOBACKUP flag in the File Information Block of a newly created file is presented. The technique involves using a FORTRAN Useropen routine to set the flag at file creation time. The Useropen routine uses a QIO to the XQP to set the flag. The net result is that the file is created with the /NOBACKUP flag set when it is opened with the FORTRAN OPEN statement.
