Returns the dbkey of a specified record. The PLACE statement
lets you determine the target page number for records that are
to be loaded into the database. The PLACE statement is similar in
syntax to the STORE statement. However, the PLACE statement does
not actually store a record.
The PLACE statement can result in significant performance
improvements in database load procedures that specify the
PLACEMENT VIA INDEX clause for a hashed index. Use it only with
records for which a hashed index has been defined.
The PLACE statement is valid only in RDO and in Callable RDO.
