RE: Recursion

In ILE (V3R7 / V3R2), you can create the RPG program with DFTACTGRP(*NO)
and ACTGRP(*CALLER), and then you have recursivity.  Be aware however,
that you are starting up a new activation group with each recursive call
to the program.  I am currently using this method for our menu system. 
It works slick, but I wouldn't use it if I were writing something like a
calculation routine where was speed was important.
