RE: Starting out with sub-procedures

What you said in below <snip> was precisely my understanding and also what
I've found in my same experience.  (Like to see that confirmed by a true
expert, once in a while...:-)  My error in thinking was not taking the
call-level into account...  Thus *JOB does no good on an override issued at
a higher-call-level pgm (ie, pgm lower in the invocation stack).

I also agree that ACTGRP may be overrated, but gather they are a pretty big
performance-boost over OPM when using *CALLER.

Also, what-ya-call "smoke-and-mirrors" of QCMDEXC.. I would call
"cloak-and-dagger"...<bg>  Seems unfortunate, as it would be nice to be able
to deploy a similar technique to be able to do an OVR in a CLLE.

Have you ever used condition-handlers?  I started thinking about these, oh..
Summer a couple years ago.  Have NOT done any actual coding with these
techniques yet.. just some thinking.  I could, possibly, see a use for them
in certain situations.
