File:  Config Help 01


The only field on this screen that is used currently, is the: Hash Order field.

Ignore all other fields, they are not read by the program, or dont need
     your input, they are for future control information.

The Hash Order field, offers 3 options to speed hashing.

F for First will tend to fill in the gaps in your indexing, starting at 1.
  but the disadvantage of F is that it can take too long if you have lots
  of KSA_Longs.

N merely gets a count of the number of records in the P6 file, & starts
  hashing there.  It will speed hashing, but if you have previously numbered
  index's > Number of Records, you can still end up waiting a while.

L starts hashing at the highest index value & thus has nothing but free values
  to hash into.  It is the fastest.  It is best for large co's or agencies
  that have hundreds of KSAs & have a wait time that is unbearable under
  "F" or "N".
