GROUPNAME

Specifies which of the eight possible INDEX values are used as the group name for each index group. Using a unique index value for the group name is suggested. The intent is to have a unique group name for every group ACIF produces in the output file. The value includes the FIELD definitions from the INDEX parameter but not the attribute name. ACIF uses this parameter only when the file is indexed. The AFP Workbench Viewer displays this value along with the attribute name and index value. You can use the group name to select a group of pages to be viewed.

GROUPNAME={INDEX1 | INDEXn}

The values are:

INDEX1

ACIF uses the value of INDEX1 for the group name.

INDEXn

ACIF uses the value of the specified INDEX (INDEX1, INDEX2, INDEX3,…INDEX8) for the group name.

If GROUPNAME is not specified, ACIF uses INDEX1 as the default.

See Enhanced indexing parameters for information about using group indexes and triggers with enhanced ACIF indexing.
