If you code with an If block, in debug mode you will see immediately that the line is skipped when 99 is *OFF:

If ( *in99 ) ;
EXFMT FORMATA ;
EndIf ;

Subject: Does line actually execute in debug?

Hello all,

I have a question. I'm running a program in debug and trying to figure out
if a particular display format is being executed. I've set a breakpoint
on the line and the program does stop there. However the actual execution
of the line is dependent on an indicator like so:

99 EXFMT FORMATA

and the indicator is OFF at the time. I'm thinking that I'm correct in
saying that the debug processor stops before the execution of the actual line. So technically if the indicator is off, this line is NOT getting
executed in any way. This program has several display formats that are
almost identical, and I check the open files directly after this statement and it does not show this format being displayed.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Bill
