filename

The name of a file that contains Progress keywords to disable. Each keyword must use a single line in the file. If Progress encounters a word that is not a Progress keyword, it returns a warning message but continues processing the file. Progress uses the PROPATH variable to locate filename. If it cannot find filename, it displays an error message and does not start Progress.

Use Keyword Forget List (-k) to disable Progress keywords. The keyword forget list is provided to ease migration from one version of Progress to the next. Do not use keywords in procedures as object names (tables, fields, frames, variables, streams, etc.). If necessary, disable new keywords (and the features they implement) until they can be removed from the application.

The directory where Progress is installed contains the following keyword files:
