Description

PARST specifies the archive file identifier and the list of structure identifiers for the structures to be archived. 

  This function archives the specified structure or list of structures in the specified open archive file.  The value of the archive conflict resolution flag (MAINTAIN, ABANDON, or UPDATE) determines how the function treats existing structures encountered in the specified archive file. 

If a structure is open, the function operation closes that structure, archives it, and then reopens it in the CSS.  If the archive file is filled before the operation archives all structures, it stops archiving and issues a warning message.  (The last stored structure is complete; no structure is archived in part.)  If a structure does not exist, you receive a warning message, and no other action is taken for that structure.
