I am trying to use all Evals in my programming just because it is much easier 
to read and understand.

My question is, however, should I be converting Z-ADDs to Evals?  I understand 
we use(d) Z-ADD
instead of MOVE because Z-ADD was more effiecient.  We could of used MOVE, but 
we used Z-ADD.
Now, if I have a statement (and I do):

      C   99              Z-ADD     *ZERO         EQSIZE

and I want to convert this to "modern" programming, should it become:

      C                   If       *IN99
      C                   Z-Add     *Zero         EqSize
      C                   EndIf

or should it become:

      C                   If       *IN99
      C                   Eval      EqSize = *Zero
      C                   EndIf

Any comments on this are appreciated.

Regards,

Jim Langston
