Choose the Open... menu item to establish an existing
  CMS library as the current library.  The library is
  automatically inserted into the library search list.

  When you choose Open..., a dialog box appears,
  allowing you to specify options for the library to be
  opened.

  You can specify multiple libraries to be opened by
  separating each library with a comma.

  The Open Library dialog box allows you to specify
  information such as the name of the library to be opened,
  allows you to verify the opened library, and optionally
  allows you to specify search list information for the
  library.

  It also displays any known libraries you have set up
  using the Known Libraries... menu item under the
  Options menu.

  Fill in the Library Directory field with the name of a
  OpenVMS directory previously defined as a CMS library.

  The library cannot be your current default directory.
  The library must already exist.

  You can specify multiple libraries to be opened by
  separating each library name with a comma. Wildcards are
  not allowed.

1.2  –  Ol klf

  The Known Libraries list box contains a list of all
  the CMS libraries you previously specified (if any)
  through the Known Libraries... submenu under the
  Options menu. The Known Libraries list box can
  contain ten library names.

  If you click on a library in the list box, the library
  is placed in the Library Directory field.  Double click
  on the library in the list box to place it in the
  Library Directory field and open it.

  If you press the SHIFT key, then click on the library
  in the list box, the library is appended to any libraries
  in the Library Directory field.  Press the SHIFT key,
  then double click on the library in the list box to
  append the library to any libraries in the Library
  Directory field and open it.

  When the Verify Added Libraries button is activated, CMS
  performs a normal locking and verification process as the
  library is opened.

  If Verify Added Libraries is not activated, CMS opens the
  library without performing the locking and verification
  process.  This speeds up the open library operation and
  allows you to open the library even if it is locked by
  another user.

  Click on the Search List Position button to specify the
  position the new library or libraries should have in the

     existing list, if one exists

     be inserted into the existing list, and the
     position in which they are to be inserted, before
     or after other libraries, or last in the list.

  The default is to include the newly-opened library after
  all previously opened libraries.
