ARGUMENTS

             file.

DESCRIPTION
   This function is used to specify the location and/or name of the system-
   database transaction activity file.If taf ends with the directory separator
   character (i.e. '\' on  DOS and '/' on UNIX),the default file names are
   appended to the specified path name to form the fully-qualified file name.
   The default file name is "vista.taf" and is assumed to be located in the
   working directory.If taf does not end with the directory separator
   character, db_VISTA will assume that the variable is the complete file
   name. This function must be called before the database is opened.

   There must be only one transaction activity file and it must be accessible
   to all db_VISTA users on the system.
