I'm looking at some code that is very confusion to me.

In a routine that is never called (actually named NEVER), there's this
line...


C *DTAARA DEFINE ODKEYS @BILDS


From what I've read is that ODKEYS is supposed to be an external data
structure. However, it doesn't exist on the system whatsoever. ODKEYS is
not a field within the program anywhere, and it's not being built on the
fly in QTEMP or anything. I'm just totally lost.

Before I go any further... @BILDS is defined in the DSPECS.

D @BILDS UDS
D @@BILL 1 7 0
D @@SSEQ 8 10 0


Maybe I'm reading too much into this. But I don't see how the program
compiles when it doesn't know what ODKEYS is. The program does compile.
Could it be some global variable or system variable? I don't know just
throwing it out there.

Any help would be appreciated.
