Company identification (wixset.dat)

The wixset.dat table is a fixed-length sequential file that contains one record. It is created from the internal wixset table (which the program creates from the entries on the Company ID screen) when the map is run. The default is for wixset.dat to be located in the trading partner directory, but for outbound processing you can override this directory location at runtime using the -dw <directory> switch.
