I am working with customer using jBASE and I checked the MD item to determine where the file existed and there was no MD item for the file. How does jBASE determine where the file is?
jBASE uses the locations as defined in the JEDIFILEPATH
environment variable to find your files:

But anything defined in the MD/VOC takes precedence.
