*STMT means "statement".  The only thing you can view in debug are the
statement numbers.  This is what we had in the old days, before the
debugger displayed the source on the screen for you...  back when you had
to refer to the compile listing to see where you were in the program..

I started out using DBGVIEW(*ALL) but ran into some errors where the
compiler would say "Internal Error" and generate pages and pages of memory
dumps and only really lovely things.  It didn't do that all the time, but
occasionally it would, depending on the code I wrote.

Switching to DBGVIEW(*LIST) solved the problem for me -- so that's what I
always use now.  I'm curious why you'd want the *COPY listing view
included when you've got the *LIST view included as well?  Not that *COPY
is a bad thing, it just seems superfluous when you've got *LIST.

At any rate, the problem I had was many years ago, and was probably fixed
long, long ago....   Now I just use *LIST because it's been my habit...
