                               Dictionary

The Dictionary file stores data dictionary names used to create compute
statements. Each entry defines a value that you can use for depreciation and
other calculations. AM550 (Dictionary Load and Listing) creates and updates
this file; this program runs as part of the upgrade and conversion processes.
