Specifies the name of a field or a record in a database by
directory name, or by field or record name and context variable.
A context variable is a temporary name you associate with a
record. You define a context variable in a record selection
expression (RSE). You specify a context variable only when you
use the name IN parameter of the field or record expression
syntax.
For example, once you define E as the context variable for the
EMPLOYEES relation, LAST_NAME IN E is a value expression that
refers to a value from the LAST_NAME field of EMPLOYEES. Use name
IN only in an expression with a context variable.
