         READ [/RELOCATE=expression]  file-spec
 	     [/EXECUTIVE]  directory-spec

     Copies global symbols from an object module to the SDA symbol table.
     The READ command lets you extract global symbols from any object
     module and insert the definitions into the SDA symbol table.  If you
     do not specify a file type, .STB is used by default.

     The following MACRO program can be used to obtain symbols in addition
     to those in SYS.STB:

 	.TITLE	GLOBALS
 	$PHDDEF	GLOBAL		; Process header definitions
 	$DDBDEF	GLOBAL		; Device data block
 	$UCBDEF	GLOBAL		; Unit control block
 	$VCBDEF	GLOBAL		; Volume control block
 	$ACBDEF	GLOBAL		; AST control block
 	$IRPDEF	GLOBAL		; I/O request packet
 	; more can be inserted here
 	.END

     Use the command below to generate an object module file containing
     the globals defined in the program.

 	$ MACRO GLOBALS+SYS$LIBRARY:LIB/LIBRARY /OBJECT=GLOBALS.STB
