SYNOPSIS

     #include 

     DAT_RETURN
         dat_get_handle_typet (
         IN    DAT_HANDLE        dat_handle,

PARAMETERS
     dat_handle     Handle for a DAT Object.

DESCRIPTION
     The dat_get_handle_type() function allows  the  Consumer  to
     discover the type of a DAT Object using its handle.


     The dat_handle can be one of  the  following  handle  types:
     DAT_IA_HANDLE, DAT_EP_HANDLE, DAT_EVD_HANDLE, DAT_CR_HANDLE,
     DAT_RSP_HANDLE,        DAT_PSP_HANDLE,        DAT_PZ_HANDLE,
     DAT_LMR_HANDLE, or DAT_RMR_HANDLE.


     The handle_type  is  one  of  the  following  handle  types:
     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_IA, DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_EP, DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_EVD,
     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_CR,                     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_PSP,
     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_RSP,                     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_PZ,
     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_LMR,         DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_RMR,         or
     DAT_HANDLE_TYPE_CNO.

RETURN VALUES
     DAT_SUCCESS           The operation was successful.


     DAT_INVALID_HANDLE    The dat_handle parameter is invalid.


USAGE
     Consumers can use this operation to determine  the  type  of
     Object  being  returned.  This  is  needed  for  calling  an
     appropriate query or any other operation on the Object  han-
     dle.
