Missing Source Code (AREV Specific)

I have two R/Basic programs that I can't find the source for. The programs have been compiled and can still be executed, but I can't find the source anywhere.
Since I've only been programming in AREV for 2 weeks, I was wondering if the code be in a different AREV file. I'm not real sure how to identify which file the code is in unless I modify a program save and compile it.
Any direction is appreciated.

Normally the programs and object are found in the same file. If you can execute the code, most likely it's been cataloged. So, edit the VOC record for the program. It should tell you the program name.

Do you have a working example of the TCL command line ?

For a working program that has source, I executed "EDIT VOC PRINT.LANDSCAPE" and the file opened.
For a working program with no source, I executed "EDIT VOC REGISTAR.REPORT" and got a message that this was a new record in the VOC file.
Does that mean that REGISTAR.REPORT isn't a R/BASIC program ?

It all depends on whether the program you're working on has been catalog'd. If so, you will find a VOC entry for it under the entry PROGRAM.NAME. So, if you EDIT VOC PROGRAM.NAME and get a New Record message, it's not catalog'd. If it is, you will see an entry that looks like:
TCL
RBASIC
TABLE.NAME where OBJECT CODE IS
etc.
Any R/BASIC program can be executed by running it from the TCL:
RUN OBJECT.TABLE.NAME PROGRAM.NAME.
If the program is a subroutine or a function, then it MUST have a VOC entry.
If you are using AREV3.x then source programs might be in TABLE SOURCE and object programs will be in TABLE OBJECT. Many REV programmers use the TABLE named BP to store both SOURCE and OBJECT. If you are absolutely stuck on this and can't find the source at all, then send me an E-MAIL ([email protected]) with your voice # and I'll try to help you out.

If you edit the object code and scroll to the very bottom, right, usually you will see the name of the file and record from which the object was compiled. It appears just before the compile time/date.
