Configuration Command (DB/2 Only)

Set the location of the bind file.

bindfile PATHNAME 

PATHNAME 

A string indicating the existing pathname of the directory that contains the file ESLSQLDB.BND. The pathname should not include the filename. The program appends the string "\ESLSQLDB.BND" to the supplied path, and uses that as the bind filename. The default is the current directory (".")

Description

See the DB/2 Programming Guide and Reference for a description of the binding process.

The bind file is not opened until a subsequent binddb command is issued.
