Usage

get_pgmname(df, tnumber = NULL, pname = NULL, oid = NULL)

Arguments

df

A data frame containing TFL metadata.

tnumber

An optional character string specifying the TFL number stored in TTL1, such as "Table 14.1.1".

pname

An optional character string specifying the program name stored in PGMNAME.

Exactly one of tnumber or pname must be supplied.

oid
