You're missing either a closing quote or the continuation symbol that is
required when you break a literal across multiple lines.

Subject: Weird compiler behavior --has anybody else seen this?

I have just encountered some weird behavior from the ILE 
RPG compiler.

It seems that I have single quotes embedded in a symbolic 
constant, coded in the usual way by doubling them. E.g.:

DSNDMSG    C          'SNDMSG ''Household address 
        -
D                     for member         was missing from 
-
      .
      .
      .

This is how the manual says to code embedded single 
quotes, and it's always worked in the past. But this 
afternoon, the compiler is spitting out code with the 
doubled single-quotes preserved.

Has anybody ever seen this happen before?

I'm about to move a test source member onto another box, 
and see what happens when I compile it there.
