Re: More on Call or Bound Call

Buzz,

Does your boss ever ask you to write something new?  If so (of course he
does), it's easy: 'Ah, I'm afraid that is technically impossible/would cost
me two weeks in RPG III.  Now if I could use RPG IV ...'

As for my code not being 'critiqued':  why should it be?  It is perfect!
(Although some of my colleagues get to read it and sometimes have very
annoying questions).
