CLEAR ALL*
Close files and release public and private variables
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
CLEAR ALL
Description
CLEAR ALL releases all public and private variables, closes all open
databases and related files in all active work areas, and SELECTs work
area 1. Related files are index, alternate, and memo files. CLEAR ALL,
however, does not release local or static variables.
CLEAR ALL is a compatibility command and therefore not recommended. Its
usage in CA-Clipper is superseded by the command or function that
performs the specific action you need. You can close files associated
with work areas with one of the various forms of the CLOSE command. You
can release private and public variables using the RELEASE command
although explicitly releasing variables is discouraged in most
instances. For more information on the scope and lifetime of variables,
refer to the "Basic Concepts" chapter in the Programming and Utilities
Guide.
Files Library is CLIPPER.LIB.
