Or instead of multiple selects....

Select;
  When A = 5;
        // Take action
  When A = 7;
        // Take different action
  When A = 9;
        // Take different action
  When A = 6;
        // Take different action
  When A = 9;
        // Take different action
 EndSl;

If A = 5 Or A = 7 Or A = 8;
  Except Detail;
ElseIf A = 6 or A = 9;
  Except Hark;
EndIf

I think that is easier to read, and I don't really see the need to add 2 
subprocedures to do that.
