RE: RPG400-L Digest, Vol 2, Issue 897

If you go to the manuals in the Info Center, you end up with the V5R2
manuals (which was the case in this situation) and the feature is of course
documented there.
You'd have to book mark the old manual reference URL (as I do on my website)
to get to the relative release.

Sorry, I don't understand.  The ILE RPG language has manuals, just like any
other.  If I have odd compiler issues, I do my best to go to the manual
straight away.  I know I'm not smart enough to remember every detail,
particularly since the ILE RPG language isn't static.
