Description:Many AFOS applications programs require the input of data which are available in an AFOS database product, Given the K££RF and RDBKF routines callable from UTIL,LB, the retrieval of the AFOS product containing the data is simple, The varying position of the data within similar products and the often involved process of finding and extracting the data, however, have forced many programmers to cumbersome methods of data entry. A subroutine consisting of routines FIND and XTRACT has been written to aid in searching for and extracting data from AFOS database products. The search routine, FIND, will locate the occurrence and position of a user-defined pattern in the AFOS product. The implementation of metacharacters to alter the normal search process makes the routine very flexible. The extraction routine, XTRACT, will retrieve a copy of the data as well as locate it in the AFOS product.
