14.5 Accessing the Contents of a Record
BASIC provides the following methods for accessing the
contents of a record:
.
MAP statement
.
MAP DYNAMIC and REMAP statements (dynamic
mapping)
.
MOVE statements
.
FIELD statements
The FIELD statement is a declining feature and is not
recommended for new program development. Digital rec-
ommends that you use either MAP statements, dynamic
mapping, or MOVE statements to access record contents.
