Description

Empty element consisting only of its attributes.

Remarks: Where the same variable is coded in two different files, e.g., a fixed format file and a relational database file, simply repeat the physLoc element with the alternative location information. Note that if there is no width or ending position, then the starting position should be the ordinal position in the file, and the file would be described as free-format. New attributes will be added as other storage formats are described within the DDI.

Example

<physLoc type="rectangular" recRef="R1" startPos="55" endPos="57" width="3"/> <physLoc type="hierarchical" recRef="R6" startPos="25" endPos="25" width="1"/>
