RE: Indicators -- not needed anymore???

TESTN wasn't that hot anyway.  123N will test successfully.  Granted 
that's because of the potential for a sign.  But in a bulk of the data 
that you would use TESTN on, how often would you expect the sign to be 
stored that way?

RE: Indicators -- not needed anymore???






Tom,

What I mean is someplace where a named indicator can't be used.

SLFDSP/SFLDSPCTL isn't an example since you can use named indictors in the
RPG code to control the DDS indicators.

So far, TESTN and LOKUP appears to be the only places where indicators are
still needed.  However, LOKUP can be replaced by %lookup and TESTN could 
be
replaced, thought not exactly by %check.
