I would like some clarification on the user of XREF in ACEDB.
For example,
?Author Name Text
Paper ?Paper
?Paper Title Text
Author ?Author
The example above should create a 2-way link between Author and paper.
However the syntactic definitions for ACEDB (Dec. 10 1992) gives an
example (edited here for brevity) that reads
?Author Name Text
Paper ?Paper XREF Author
?Paper Title Text
Author ?Author XREF Paper
What does the XREF accomplish? What can you do that would otherwise
be impossible without the XREF? Can someone illustrate this point
with an example?
