Resolution

Warning!!

The following statement is only a resolution to a Standard Improvement Request (SIR) and is NOT part of the current DMIS standard, nor is it guaranteed to become part of the next revision of the DMIS standard even if voted and accepted by the DMIS National Standards Committee. This resolution is tentative because it may not be incorporated into the next version of the standard, it could be changed prior to the next release, or it could be changed as the result of the "public review and comment" period required for the next version of the standard. If you choose to use this tentative resolution, you do so at your own risk since at this time it is not part of the DMIS standard.

Accepted per 4/97
Resolution:
1) Added note to CLOSE
. "Note: 'Does not exist' on var_1 only applies to non-STOR devices (e.g.,PRINT,TERM,COMM). KEEP and DELETE only apply to STOR devices."
2) Remove "Does not exist" from var_1 of OPEN.
3) Add note to OPEN.
"Note: 'Does not exist' on var_4 only applies to non-STOR devices (e.g.,PRINT,TERM,COMM). APPEND and OVERWR only apply to STOR devices."
