Program DSTARCFIF
Date 20 October 1982
The FIF Film-Destruct Archival System, DSTARCFIF, is divided into four
programs, each performing a specific function.
The first program, DSTARCFIF, reads the NPIC data base and creates a
file (FIF*TEMPDESTRUCT) containing the film-destruct records.
The second program., DSTRPTFIF, sorts the temporary recall records by
mission number, control number-ID, and return date. A report is printed con-
taining information on each entry.
The third program, DSTMRGFIF, merges the records of the temporary destruct
file with the existing history file, in the order mentioned above. The history
file is then read to be sure no errors occur.
The .fourth and last program, DSTDELFIF, purges all the film-destruct records
merged into the history tape from the NPIC data base.
