PROGRESS

Controls the frequency of progress reporting.
Note: Supported by all mfims imsdbu functions.

Syntax:

>>-------PROGRESS--(no-of-segments)---><

Parameters:

no-of-segments
A value between 0 and 9999 indicating the number of segments to process before displaying a progress message. 0 disables progress reporting.

Properties:

Default: PROGRESS(200)

Comments:

Depending of the function being carried out, the progress message shows the number of segments processed or the percentage complete and an estimate of the time remaining.

In general, we recommend not reducing this value below its default. Very small values measurably reduce the performance of the database function. For relatively fast systems, setting the value higher (such as to 1000 or larger) may improve performance slightly.
