I thought as much. Thanks. I can recognize and even understand free
form RPG. Just have no experience with it and with EOL on this
system, not likely to happen beyond this program.

I knew it would happen.  Just got a call.  But, rather than changing
the test to <>, additional tests are contemplated.  Does the word
"and" work in free form on an "if" test?

2/3.  Just recompile, but check permissions before/after.  For security, an exit point program like this should not have permissions that allow it to be changed by normal users.

Ours has:

*PUBLIC                 *EXCLUDE
QTCP                    *USE

Also note that errors that cause the exit program to crash will basically make it like there is no exit program.

Subject: Modifying an exit point program

An exit point program is installed on QIBM_QTG_DEVINIT

It contains a single line that needs to be changed.  It is free format.  Existing line is testing for first three characters equal to "VPN"

Questions:

1) What is the not equal operator in free format RPG?  Is it != or <>, or something else?
2) I recall the discussion on a mediator program.  I can't recall if it was only needed for a data file change, or for any program change.
Does system have to be in restricted state to make this change?
3) Does recompile of the program into the target library accomplish all changes, or does the exit point have to be dropped an readded?

I ask, since I may be "asked" to make the changes.  The person who functioned as sa, does not necessarily do this anymore.
