Ask the Wizard Questions

way to turn off file versioning?

The Question is: 


Is there any way to turn off versioning for files?
I.e. is there a variable which specifies the number of
versions that are to be kept for any file, which I can set
to 1?

The Answer is: 

SET FILE /VERSION_LIMIT for individual files, SET DIRECTORY/VERSION_LIMIT for
directories.  See the help topics for these commands for more details.
