Major Changes Coming From Actian Regarding PSQL/Zen Product Lines
Please note that ALL outstanding quotes for Actian Zen/PSQL are valid through Friday, April 12 ONLY. New pricing is expected to take effect on April 15, which is explained in more detail here. If you are planning on ordering ANY product, please get your order placed as soon as possible. As Actian did not provide us with enough time to update our shopping site web server, we are taking that system off-line to prevent taking orders that Actian will not fulfill. Please expect order fulfillment to take 12-48 hours, with orders being placed on Friday likely to take several days, depending on total volume. Stand by for more details, coming soon in our next Meteor newsletter.

  • Pages - FCR, PAT, Data, Index, Variable, VAT
  • Details in the File Control Record (FCR)
  • Use of Page Allocation Tables (PATs)

Course Prerequisites: Student should have an understanding of Btrieve files and applications in general. Knowledge of ASCII and hexadecimal numbering formats is helpful (or you will learn it in class).

Goldstar Software strongly urges anyone taking this Advanced session to also take the PSQL/Zen Service & Support sessions, since this class provides a core foundation of knowledge for the advanced session.
