NAME
     parent - Path name of a workspace's parent

SYNOPSIS
     Codemgr_wsdata/parent

DESCRIPTION
     The file ws/Codemgr_wsdata/parent (where ws is the name of a
     workspace)  is  a  text  file that contains the path name of
     ws's parent workspace.

     The parent file is created by the bringover command when  it
     creates  a  new  child workspace, or by the workspace parent
     command if the workspace workspace  was  originally  created
     with the workspace create command (and thus had no parent).

     The following commands consult this file to obtain the  name
     of a workspace's parent:

     o   bringover

     o   putback

     o   workspace parent

     o   workspace parent

     The following files modify the contents of the parent file

     o   workspace delete

     o   workspace move

     o   workspace parent

     TeamWare was formerly known as  CodeManager.  TeamWare  com-
     mands specify parent workspace names in one of two formats:

     1) host_name:path_name

        This format is used when the parent directory is  mounted
        to  the  local  file  system via the mount command.  This
        format ensures that the directory can be reached if users
        mount remote directories to different path names on their
        local host file systems.

     2) path_name

        This format is used when the parent directory is  mounted
        via  the  automounter.  By using the simple path name, it
        is assumed that users sharing  workspaces  use  the  same
        automounter maps and that path names from local host file
