                  TITLE "string" 
                  Optional. This is a string of up to 80 characters that describes 
                    the Environment file. TITLE is used for informational purposes

                  SET
                   Optional. The keyword SET is a section identifier for the 
                    SET section of the ENVIRONMENT definition. The following Environment 
                    settings are established through SET:

                    contain three different wildcard characters, separated by 
                    commas, from the following set:

                  Defaults

                    (asterisk) any string 
                   ? 
                    (question mark) any character 
                   # 
                    (pound sign) any ASCII digit 
                    
                  OMNIDEX SENTINEL 
                    character. Default % (percent sign).   
                    
                  OPTIMIZATION 
                    specifies the default type of optimization performed by Omnidex 
                    throughout an application connected to this environment. These 
                    options can be toggled on (optimization_setting) or off (NO_optimization_setting). 
                    Several optimization settings can be specified in a single 
                    SET command, separated by commas or spaces. 
                     Example: 
                    SET 
                    OPTIMIZATION="AGGREGATION, SERIAL"

                    {ODXRULES | SQLRULES} - This feature is removed in Omnidex 
                    version 4.0. 
                    
                  ESCAPE character. 
                    Default \ (backslash). Only a single escape character can

                  CENTURY THRESHOLD n 
                    - Specifies the year cutoff for determining the century in 
                    2 digit years. For example, if the century threshold is set 
                    to 60, a 2 digit year of 45 would be translated to 2045 and 
                    a 2 digit year of 61 would be translated to 1961. This setting 
                    can be explicitly over-ridden for a specific column in the 
                    column definition.
