Use database file I/O operations in a program

Grab one particular record in a file:

      chain (employee) empfile;

Write a record:

      write roperator;

Set the pointer to a spot in the file then read all records that match the key:

      setll (employee) emphist;
      reade (employee) emphist;
      
      dow not %eof();
        ::: Logic here :::
        reade (employee) emphist;
      enddo;

Update a record:

      update record;

Use display file I/O operations in a program

Write a display record:

      write footer;

EXFMT:

      exfmt screen1;

Read a display record:

      read screen;
