RESTORE
RESTORE #fjle-numberi .REC num eric-expressionI
(For' a dC3Cription of the RESTORE statement used with the
READ and DATA statements. see "Input-Output Statements. ")
The RESTORE statement repositions an open file at its beginning
record (see the first
example on the right). or at a specific record if
the file is RELATIVE (see the second example on the right).
If the
file-number specified in a RESTORE statement is not
already open. the program will terminate with the message "FILE
ERROR IN xx."
You may use
the REC clause only with a RELATIVE file. The
computer evaluates the numeric·expression following REC and
uses the value as a pointer to a specific record on thc file. If you
RESTORE a RELATIVE file and do not use the REC clause. the
file will be set to record O.
If there is a pending PRINT record. the record will be written on
the file before the RESTORE is performed. If there is a pending
INPUT. the data in the I/O buffer is discarded.
RELATIVE files are not supported by cassette recorders.
