Re: Tracing statements executed in debug

["Steve Landess" <steve_landess@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan -

What kind of program is PC8741ICXX?

If it is an ILE program, you cannot trace it.  ILE programs cannot be
traced.   If it is an OPM program, you _can_ trace it, but all you will get
out of the trace is statement numbers.

Procedure for producing trace from a program:

1)  Start debug like indicated in your message
2)  Add a trace using ADDTRC
3)  Run the program
4) Use DSPTRCDTA OUTPUT(*PRINT) to display the trace data after running the
program to display the trace data to a report
5) RMVTRC *ALL
6) ENDDBG

Have you considered using interactive debug instead?  I almost _always_ use
interactive debug now, instead of trace...
