SET SCOPEBOTTOM
Change the bottom boundary for scoping key values in the controlling order
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
SET SCOPEBOTTOM TO [<expNewBottom>]
Arguments
<expNewBottom> is the bottom range of key values that will be
included in the controlling order's current scope. <expNewBottom> can
be an expression that matches the data type of the key expression in the
controlling order or a code block that returns the correct data type.
Description
SET SCOPEBOTTOM, when used with the <expNewBottom> argument, is
functionally equivalent to ORDSCOPE(1, <expNewBottom>). SET
SCOPEBOTTOM, when used with no argument, is functionally equivalent to
ORDSCOPE(1, NIL). Refer to the ORDSCOPE() function for more
information.
Examples
. The following example illustrates the SET SCOPEBOTTOM command:
USE Inventor NEW
INDEX ON PartNo TO Parts
SET SCOPEBOTTOM TO 1000
// Only part numbers less than or equal to 1000
// will be used.
