The GREPLAY procedure
uses the following naming conventions to prevent duplication of names,
or overwriting entries:
-
For entry names that are less than
eight characters long, the procedure adds a numeric suffix to the
entry's name. The total number of characters is limited to eight.
-
For entry names that are eight
characters long or longer, the procedure drops the number of characters
that are needed to add a numeric suffix while maintaining the eight-character
limit. For example, if you copy an entry TITLEONE to a catalog that
already contains an entry with that name, the procedure assigns the
name TITLEON1 to the copied entry.
Note: The GREPLAY procedure uses
the same naming conventions for entries created by the template facility.
